Animated Stroke Order

Watch the strokes appear in the correct order. The animation loops automatically — observe the sequence and practise writing along.

···

Practice tip

Watch the animation 2–3 times, then write the character on paper following the same order. Writing activates muscle memory more effectively than watching alone. 大 has 3 strokes.
