序 (xù) — HSK 4 Recognition Character: Meaning & Stroke Order

About the character 序
序 (xù) means order; sequence (as in 顺序). It is one of the 150 characters HSK 4 expects you to write from memory. Practice the stroke order until it feels automatic — most learners need 5–10 successful traces before a character "sticks".
