Mnemonic


[di-] Diddy Kong is in the [4] bathroom of the [-an] pawn shop, sitting on the toilet, reading his 占 fortune from a cookie he bought. It says the thing he 惦 longs for will soon appear before him. Suddenly a 忄 soul floats in through the window and turns into a 广 shack. And bursting out from the 广 shack comes what he 惦 longs for: a pile of perfectly ripe yellow bananas that fall onto the tile floor.
