订dìng
to subscribe to, to order. 4 strokes, radical 讠, first met in HSK 3.
What 订 is made of
讠 (yán, words) and 丁 (dīng, male adult).
讠 carries the meaning — speech — and 丁 carries the sound.
How to write 订
Strokes 1–2 write 讠, then strokes 3–4 write 丁.
Free, with no account: the app draws each stroke, then you write it and it says which stroke went wrong.
