[shouwa52]

U can absolutely take your time. Traditionally it is done with brush and ink. The pressure and speed of your brush effects the thickness and shape of kanji. In this video I was attempting to write kanji with the music.

Correct speed and order of strokes are very important. There is also a way to treated like art and give it life but that's usually done by more experienced person. Sort of like obstructive drawing.

Does the same things apply to left handed people? I write my kanji differently.

[shouwa52]

kanji is designed for right handed people, usually in Japan left handed people were thought to write with right hand. placing the paper at diagonal seem to help some left handed people.

Katakana is completely different from Kanji right? so if I wanted to study Japanese which would of the two would be best to learn?

[shouwa52]

hiragana and katakana should be studied together since similarities is significant. consider hiragana and katakana as alphabet and kanji as words. in Japan hiragana and katakana is studied before kanji.

[wilzour]

心 looks wierd!!! and 美 is wrong the ay you wrote it

[maneatingbanana]

命、男、地、水、社、神、使　has the wrong order. Also why does is look like some of them you copied off the computer?

[novacrystalas]

It's true he doesn't write them with proper stroke order, but how many of us have perfect stroke order and kanji all the time? Foreigners could care less sometimes about stroke order as long as it can be read. Remembering the shapes, pronunciations, and meanings of 2000-4000 characters to be literate trumps perfect execution of stroke order, だろ？ Stroke order haters, but I do appreciate correct and properly written Kanji! Anyone agree with me?

[LunaXenoLovegood]

Your 水 was a bit off.. The horizontal stroke should be written first, then the second, and the third and fourth are separate, not connected. Sorry for nitpicking, but 水 is my favourite Kanji, LOL. Great job though! :DDDDD

I recognized "heaven" !!!.... i guess

[tovetroll84]

man, you even messed up the stroke order for "男"! Your characters still look better than mine though ;)
