Mnemonic


[ji-] Jimmy Neutron is in [1] front of the [-ao] barn, hungry. He finds a 隹 turkey walking around and hits it over the head, then starts cooking it over a 灬 burner. He is using a nuclear-powered high-tech 灬 burner, and sure enough, he 焦 burns his 隹 turkey. In fact it is 焦 burnt to a crisp, practically inedible. The cows moo in mourning over the 焦 burnt food.
