Where the shape comes from
Originally a picture of a weapon with a jagged blade, borrowed early on for its sound. Nothing in the parts explains the meaning, so this is one to learn by writing it several times.
Write it
Watch the order first, then trace it with the guide, then write it from memory. The model comes back over your strokes so you can see where the shape drifted.
