How to write 生日快乐
Simplified Chineseshēngrì kuàilèhappy birthday4 characters · 21 strokes
生日快乐 (shēngrì kuàilè) means “happy birthday”. It is written with 4 characters and 21 strokes: 生 (shēng, life, be born), 日 (rì, sun, day), 快 (kuài, fast, happy) and 乐 (lè, happy). This is the simplified form; in traditional Chinese it is 生日快樂.
Write the characters left to right. Within each, the red stroke is the next one and the dot shows where it starts.
1. 生 shēng · life, be born · 5 strokes
2. 日 rì · sun, day · 4 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.
