Kanji
I have listed the kanji you will need for the vocabulary for your convenience. The link will take you to
a diagram of the stroke order.
However, it doesn't clearly show the direction (though you can kind of tell by the animation) so you
should check with a kanji dictionary if you're not sure.
I recommend practicing the kanji in the context of real words (such as the ones below).
1. 見 - see
2. 来 - come; next
3. 行 - go; conduct
4. 帰 - go home
5. 食 - eat; food
6. 飲 - drink
7. 買 - buy
8. 売 - sell
9. 持 - hold
10. 待 - wait
11. 読 - read
12. 歩 - walk
13. 走 - run
14. 遊 - play
