Mnemonic


[di-] Diddy Kong is in the elegant [3] basement of the [-(e)ng] English manor which is packed with marble statues. He tries to put his red hat on the 頂 crest of one of the statue's head, but it falls off. Frustrated, he gets a 頁 page of double sided glue paper and puts it on the head. Then he takes a 丁 spike and glues it facing up. Then he jams his hat back on the 頂 crest of the statue, where it is now both glued and hooked from the spike, ensuring it never falls off.
