Ching, Nora; Ching, Eugene

Journal of the Chinese Language Teachers Association, 10, 1, 20-24, Feb 75

The practical mechanics necessary for teaching the correct "spelling" of Chinese characters are presented. The focus is on the use of a legible orthography. Attention is given to recognition of strokes, to their formation, their spacing into blocks, the direction of the strokes and weight of the pen. (SC)
