Sentence: 我爱你

我 爱 你 — "I love you", the universal phrase. Classic SVO structure (see Basic Sentence Structure).

Pinyin: wǒ ài nǐ
Word-by-word: I (我) · love (爱) · you (你)

The character 爱 historically depicted a hand offering a heart; the modern simplified form is more abstract.

How this works: first watch the stroke order. Then click Try writing, and draw each stroke with your mouse. Wrong order or wrong shape is flagged in red and you have to redo that stroke. After three misses on the same stroke, a faint hint appears.
