Writing Chinese Characters

Post by jilang »

Hi

Most of the time when I find out the Chinese character for a Hokkien word, it's in traditional (an example is the 300 word list which duaagiii gave the link to). I don't know how to properly handwrite traditional (eg: correct stroke order) so I would like to ask whether anyone could explain how to (if it's simple) or give any links explaining how (in English, preferbly).

Thanks
