How to study 图 in context

  1. Say tú, then recall the core meaning: diagram, chart, map, picture.
  2. Write all 8 strokes while keeping the enclosed balanced.
  3. Use it in 地图 (dì tú), meaning “map”.
  4. Read the complete sentence aloud once, then cover the translation and explain how 图 works in that context.
