Same in 简体 simplified and 繁體 traditional
朋友 (péngyou) means “friend”. It is written with 2 characters and 12 strokes: 朋 (péng, friend (in 朋友)) and 友 (yǒu, friend). It is written the same way in simplified and traditional Chinese.
Write the characters left to right. Within each, the red stroke is the next one and the dot shows where it starts.
1. 朋 péng · friend (in 朋友) · 8 strokes
2. 友 yǒu · friend · 4 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.
