Mnemonic


[ji-] Jimmy Neutron is in [1] front of the [-ao] barn where he is on top of a 足 wooden leg balancing a ball of 交 yarn on top of his metal dog. Unfortunately, he 跤 falls, tumbling off and into the big pit of mud. The 交 yarn and 足 wooden leg similarly 跤 fall right in next to him. So much for being a boy genius.
