Mnemonic


[y-] Yoshi is in the [3] basement of the [-ong] temple where he is playing a 踴 leaping game with a 力 muscular arm. They piled a bunch of ancient temple 甬 smokers on top of the rock basement floor and they take turns 踴 leaping over it. The 力 muscular arm loses since it doesn't even have legs, so Yoshi wins the award: an ancient 足 wooden leg said to be used by a monk who once 踴 leaped across space and time.
