How to study 达 in context

  1. Say dá, then recall the core meaning: to reach, to arrive at.
  2. Write all 6 strokes while keeping the lower-left enclosure balanced.
  3. Use it in 达到 (dá dào), meaning “to reach”.
  4. Read the complete sentence aloud once, then cover the translation and explain how 达 works in that context.
