phlegm

Mnemonic


[t-] Tarzan is [2] inside the [-an] pawn shop where an 炎 inflammation has broken out. He runs over to it and, lacking clothes to pat it out, instead coughs up a bunch of 痰 phlegm and spits it into the fire. All of the 疒 snot and 痰 phlegm of the barbaric man completely drowns the 炎 inflammation saving the priceless objects. Unfortunately, the 痰 phlegm has gotten all over a bunch of priceless pawn shop objects. It's so sticky and gross.
