Why can I write a single word well but find it difficult to read a paragraph? Have you ever thought about why this happens?


1. Are you sure your words are written?


In fact, quite a few book friends have not really passed the basic skills, including writing skills and structure. When writing single characters, some strokes that are not the main strokes may not be written well, but because there is only one character, it is easy to feel good about yourself.


But once there are too many words, the problem of insufficient basic skills will become more prominent. For example, the short and horizontal strokes of some words are not written well, some points are not written well, some strokes are not written well, and all kinds of words are not written well. When we are together, we will naturally find it unbearable to watch.


For example, the picture below is the calligraphy of a classmate after practicing it for several months. If you look at a few words alone, it is passable, but when you put these words together, it is naturally what my friend calls "a bunch of shit." .

How to solve this calligraphy problem?


1. The first thing to do is to write the strokes well, and then deal with the matching relationship between strokes.

When we write, we must also pay attention to the echoes between strokes. In fact, the echoes between strokes are not only found in running script and cursive script, but also in regular script. We can see that these words are particularly typical. Of course, other words also have echoes, but it’s not too obvious. Only when the response relationship is well handled, the words we write will be smart.


2. The rules and regulations are not resolved


If the words are really written, it means that the writing style and structure of the words are basically passable. But it’s hard to read when copying a paragraph, which shows that the problem of organization is not solved. In layman's terms, structure studies the matching relationship between strokes, while composition studies the matching relationship between words. This matching relationship includes height, distance, size, length, density, expansion and contraction, etc.

This is a task that requires long-term training. We must work hard to observe and compare the copywriting process, and then grasp this matching relationship when writing the calligraphy.


In addition, we can learn some calligraphy theories when we have time, which is also very helpful for us to learn calligraphy. Only when your theory improves can your calligraphy reach a higher level.
