Mnemonic


[di-] Diddy Kong is in the [3] basement of the [-(e)ng] English manor where he has found an ancient 鼎 cauldron among the dusty statues. It is quite strangely constructed: its base consists of a carved 片 waiter and 爿 waitress that together hold aloft a bowl that is in the shape of a giant 目 eye. Diddy places some of his bananas in the empty 鼎 cauldron for safe keeping.
