Mnemonic comic for 彐
Mnemonic
Mnemonic symbol: the character 彐 looks a bit like a pig snout seen from the side. If you need to type it, remember its pronunciation ji4 by imagining Joan of Arc wearing a fake pig snout in the space station's bathroom and making grunting and squealing sounds.
Comments
Not entirely happy how this turned out, but this comic is good enough. Anyway this characters just serves as a component, albeit to quite many high-frequency characters. We'll reinforce the concept 彐 = pig snout by learning all theses characters anyway.
