Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs (YES order)
Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs (YES order) is a list of stroke orders of the CJK Unified Ideographs sorted in YES order, a simpler alternative to the traditional Radical order employed in CJK Unified Ideographs (Unicode block), List of CJK Unified Ideographs, part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4. [1] [2]
Stroke order[edit]
A stroke order is the order in which strokes are written to form a Chinese character. It can be expressed as a sequence of strokes. For example, "札: ㇐㇑㇓㇔㇟". [3] The stroke orders in the list of the present article are expressed with the YES stroke alphabet of 30 different strokes, a more accurate version based on the Standard of GB13000.1 Character Set Chinese Character Order (Stroke-Based Order), which uses 5 stroke types (written as 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). For example, the stroke order of character "札" is represented as: [4] [2]
扑 (GB) : １２１２４, 扑 (YES): ㇐㇚㇀㇑㇔.
YES order[edit]
YES is a simplified stroke-based sorting method [5] free of stroke counting and grouping, without comprise in accuracy. Briefly speaking, YES arranges Chinese characters according to their stroke orders and an "alphabet" of 30 strokes:
㇐ ㇕ ㇅ ㇎ ㇡ ㇋ ㇊ ㇍ ㇈ ㇆ ㇇ ㇌ 
㇀ ㇑ ㇗ ㇞ ㇉ ㄣ ㇙ ㇄ ㇟ ㇚ ㇓ ㇜ ㇛ ㇢ ㇔ ㇏ ㇂
built on the basis of Unicode CJK strokes.[6]
Character list with stroke orders[edit]
This is a list of stroke orders of the 20,992 CJK Unified Ideographs (Unicode block) sorted in YES order. It is too big to display here as a whole, and has been split into 4 parts with links as follows: [1] [7] [8] [9]
- Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs in YES order, part 1 of 4 (characters starting with 一)
- Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs in YES order, part 2 of 4 (characters starting with ㇑)
- Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs in YES order, part 3 of 4 (characters starting with ㇓)
- Stroke orders of CJK Unified Ideographs in YES order, part 4 of 4 (characters starting with ㇔)
The present list is based on the PRC standards. [10] [4] Versions based on the standards of Taiwan and other regions will also be developed. [11]
