Mnemonic


[f-] Frodo is in [1] front of the [-an] pawn shop where he is floating on a big puddle in the patchy pawn shop lawn on top of a second-hand 凡 tray. He can do this because he is so tiny that the 凡 tray can support him. To move around, he gets a big 巾 towel and uses it as a 帆 sail, sailing around the big pawn shop puddle.
