掴 is written in 11 strokes, following the standard Chinese stroke order. Start from the radical 扌, then complete the remaining strokes.
Stroke order matters in Chinese: it keeps the character balanced, and it is how dictionaries and handwriting input methods expect a character to be written.
掴 is a phono-semantic compound: 扌 (hand) carries the meaning, while 国 indicates the sound.
Radical: 扌 + 8 more strokes
