Stroke order is not decoration — it determines how the character looks handwritten and how dictionaries index it.
Almost every kanji is built from a small set of reusable parts. Learn the parts once and you stop memorising thousands of unrelated shapes.
The radical is the part a paper dictionary files a kanji under, and it usually hints at meaning. 韵 is filed under 音 (sound) — radical number 180 of the 214 in the Kangxi system.

韵 means Rhyme, Vowel.
韵 is read on'yomi (Chinese-derived) いん; kun'yomi (native Japanese) ひびき.
韵 is written with 13 strokes. The animated diagram on this page shows the correct order.
The radical of 韵 is 音 (sound), radical number 180 of the 214 Kangxi radicals. The radical is the component a dictionary files the character under, and it usually points at the character's meaning.
韵 is built from 音 (sound) and 匀 (equal). Learning kanji as combinations of a few hundred reusable components is far more efficient than memorising each character as a separate shape.
韵 contains 匀 as its phonetic component — the part that carries the sound rather than the meaning, which is why 韵 is read いん. Roughly two-thirds of all kanji are built this way, so spotting the phonetic component often lets you guess the reading of a character you have never seen.
Signed in, we would remember every character you have looked at — and write you reading you can actually get through, built from exactly those.
