How to write 新年快乐
Simplified Chinesexīnnián kuàilèhappy new year4 characters · 31 strokes
新年快乐 (xīnnián kuàilè) means “happy new year”. It is written with 4 characters and 31 strokes: 新 (xīn, new), 年 (nián, year), 快 (kuài, fast, happy) and 乐 (lè, happy). This is the simplified form; in traditional Chinese it is 新年快樂.
Write the characters left to right. Within each, the red stroke is the next one and the dot shows where it starts.
1. 新 xīn · new · 13 strokes
2. 年 nián · year · 6 strokes
3. 快 kuài · fast, happy · 7 strokes
4. 乐 lè · happy · 5 strokes
Now write it yourself
Trace each character in turn with your finger, a stylus or the mouse. Every stroke is checked as you draw it.
Remember it, don't just copy it
Ink a Day brings characters back to write from memory, just before you'd forget them. Five minutes a day.
