Mnemonic


[t-] Tarzan is [2] inside the [-(e)ng] English manor during the middle of winter. The heat is broken, so he walks around with his usual loin cloth and two long pieces of 冫 ice 疒 snot hanging from his nose. The 攵 foreman comes up and breaks off one of the 冫 ice 疒 snots as a joke, but ends up 疼 hurting Tarzan. He rolls on the ground, 疼 hurting, wishing he was back in the jungle.
