Turn reference into recall

How to study 逢 in context

  1. Say féng, then recall the core meaning: to happen to meet.
  2. Write all 10 strokes while keeping the lower-left enclosure balanced.
  3. Use it in 萍水相逢 (píng shuǐ xiāng féng), meaning “strangers coming together by chance”.
  4. Read the complete sentence aloud once, then cover the translation and explain how 逢 works in that context.
