Silver - some are 5 some are 6 strokes - CharleyGarrett - 2006-07-24 I'm having trouble remembering when the primative for silver occurs in it's 5 stroke abbreviated form, and when it is the full 6 strokes. The same problem with "good" too---closely related. Anybody got a good idea about that? Silver - some are 5 some are 6 strokes - Pauline - 2006-07-24 The rule for how to write "silver" (goes for "good" and "eat" as well) is very straightforward: When the primitive appears on the left, it is in its abbreviated form. In all other positions, the full form is used. Silver - some are 5 some are 6 strokes - CharleyGarrett - 2006-07-24 Thanks!
