Hi there, would it be possible to send to me in romanjin the bibliography of that book where we see a character drawn in different parts of history? I think I would love to get my hands on that book. I live in Canada, but maybe one of my friends in Japan can get it from me. All I need is the title, the name of the author and the publishing house. Arigatou!

[ChemistInJapan]

I *can* do that. However, if you don't plan on learning the Japanese writing system, then this book might be a waste of money. Everything, including the index and page numbers, are in kana or kanji.

i can read about 600 kanji and only write about 300, but holy hell, my stroke order is laughable at best. still it totally helps you memorize kanji faster and i would recommend it to anyone learning.

[ChemistInJapan]

I try to convince people all the time that learning stroke order and radicals are fundamentally important is sometimes difficult. Also, trying to get people to understand that they are "writing" the kanji, not "drawing" them is also not so easy.

Great way to pass time on a boring-phyisics class ^^

[ChemistInJapan]

Well, it's only boring in so much as I've already taken other classes which cover in detail what's being covered superficially at the beginning of this class. I expect it to become more difficult as time goes on.

I often draw on my notebooks in class. For some reason it helps me focus. I've got notbooks where I've written random characters all over.

Hey. If you don't like how the 楷書 in きれいなボールペン字 is too slow, you can use 行書 models. Most people can read it and it isn't as slow as 楷書. 王羲之's 行書 is considered one of the best, and if your 五體字類 book has his examples, I recommend that you copy them.

Thanks for the info, will check out that book or order through my local bookstore. I like the comment about where to put force when using the ball-point pen. USE THE FORCE

Arigatou gozaimasu. I do plan on learning how to properly write the kanji. Right now, I am only starting out with the hiragana and katakana, but I also want to learn how to write Kanji as well in the near future. So thank you very much for sharing this information with me.
