Character notes

Radical: see character components in strokes note

7 strokes (simplified). Write slowly and count each stroke; keep proportions balanced and finish with a clear final stroke so the character stays recognizable at small sizes.

Memory tip: Link 时 (shí) to the meaning “time” and rewrite it three times while saying the pinyin aloud.
