受浸

受 = 爫 + 冖 + 又 : Mnemonic symbol: 受 is often used in a negative sense, when something bad happens to the speaker. I thus represent 受 by a stretcher, which is used to transport injured persons.

受 = 爫 + 冖 + 又 : Sherlock Holmes lost a boxing fight in the outhouse, and he's lying on a stretcher in the bathroom now. He still has his boxing gloves on. He got beaten so badly that is opponent was even able to shave his head with an electric razor. Nobody had a cover at hand, so he's just provisionally covered with a cooking top.

浸 = 氵 + 彐 + 冖 + 又 : Joan of Arc (ji) has an urge to eat pig snouts (彐) in the encampment's bathroom ((e)n4). She puts a cooking top (冖) upside down on the floor, puts the pig snout inside and fills the improvised bowl with bottled water (氵) to soak (浸) the pig snout. To make it tender she also beats it wearing a boxing glove (又).
