Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in [1] front of the [-ao] barn where he is making a wizard 糕 cake. He puts a bunch of 米 rice on top of a 灬 burner that is placed on the soil, and then uses his magic staff to shape them into the shape of a 羊 sheep. Within a couple of minutes it magically turns into a 羊 sheep-shaped 米 rice 糕 cake. When Gandalf takes a bite, it lets out a "baa" sound, which startles the cows that look on with curiosity.
