Mnemonic comic for 星

Translation

xīng = xi + (e)ng1: star / heavenly body / satellite / small amount

Mnemonic

The sun (日) and a satellite (星) had a love affair and now have a baby: Xi Shi (xi) is quietly sleeping in her little cradle (生) in front of the engine ((e)ng1).

Comments

Kudos to https://openclipart.org/artist/j4p4n for re-uploading a fixed version of the satellite to https://openclipart.org/detail/194640/satellite-full. The original author is (apparently) https://openclipart.org/artist/ivak. Thanks!
