Writing Hiragana 7 まみむめも

[Enayjay16]

I find "Mo" to be pretty weird. Is the stroke order really like that? On most of the other ones I've seen you do the two marks "=" first then the big part "(_" not the other way around. This has me a bit confused as to why it's like that.

@Enayjay16 (Osokunatte Sumimasen=Sorry for my tardiness)or late reply. Straight off...the way I have "も" written in my video is correct. So follow this. The reason the "two horizontal lines" are written after has to do with writing flow in Japanese calligraphy. It is easier to continue writing other kana from the "horizontal lines" than from the upward stroke of "し" (which actually hooks back a little bit when written in Japanese calligraphy).

@Enayjay16 To confuse you even further... Katakana "mo", which looks like this "モ" is written from the "two horizontal lines" (or the opposite way of the hiragana "も"). This is again because of writing flow. I have that video on my channel too, if you are interested (check the "playlists")

The Me is fabulous...

I always found the M line to be the most difficult for me, personally. Thank you for uploading! ;)
