Stroke

Hello,

In English, Polish " L" is called - L with stroke. Is it correct to use "stroke" as a verb in this context? For instance:
"If you want to write "L", you must stroke L." Does it make any sense?

Thank you

Hotmale Does it make any sense? Yes, it makes sense, but it seems odd to say it that way. Why not just stick with the Polish description and keep "stroke" as a noun?
