Koohii Story 1 A godown is a dockside warehouse. This is actually a meeting of large doors and mouths. The stroke order is the same as door, not gates, just with the top stroke moved down into the now larger door.
Koohii Story 2 Note: this is not gate but actually a variation of door and is written as such, with the vertical stroke last not first.
