How to Practice

sample image of Hiragana writing practice sheet

We recommend to do the following practice.

  • 1st row: Carefully imitate the shape of sample letters.
  • 2nd row: Write letters by occasionally looking the sample.
  • 3rd row: Write a letter without looking, then compare with the sample. Repeat the same.

Refer grid lines to check the position of each stroke.

This one-time practice would be enough to get familiar with the shape of letters.

Repeat the practice to become a master of beautiful handwriting!
