Lesson Transcript

Do you know how to write う (u) in Japanese?
う (u)
Hiragana う is written in 2 strokes. Make the top stroke angled, not flat.
First, draw this short slanted line at the top center. For the second stroke, draw an ear shape starting from this point, curving up to the right and then down to the bottom center. Flick your pen at the end of this stroke. Make sure the first stroke is not too big so that your character won't be off-balance.
Here are some examples.
