Question 2

What is the difference between Tian Zi Ge and Mi Zi Ge?

Accepted Answer

Tian Zi Ge (田字格) and Mi Zi Ge (米字格) are two different grid styles used for Chinese character practice. Tian Zi Ge features a simple square divided into four equal quadrants by a horizontal and vertical line. This grid helps learners understand the basic structure and proportions of characters, making it ideal for beginners. Mi Zi Ge includes diagonal lines in addition to the horizontal and vertical lines, creating a '米' (rice) character pattern. The diagonal lines provide additional reference points for stroke placement and angles, offering more guidance for proper character formation. This grid is excellent for practicing stroke direction and balance. Both grids are available in our worksheet generator, and you can choose the one that best suits your learning needs.
