计jì
to calculate, to count; to plan, to reckon; plot, scheme. 4 strokes, radical 讠, first met in HSK 2.
What 计 is made of
讠 (yán, words) and 十 (shí, ten).
讠 carries the meaning — speech — and 十 carries the sound.
How to write 计
Strokes 1–2 write 讠, then strokes 3–4 write 十.
Free, with no account: the app draws each stroke, then you write it and it says which stroke went wrong.
