拙于言词

拙 = 出 + 扌 : Julian Giant Squid (zhu) wants to use the emergency exit (出) in front of the observatory (o1), but it has to be operated using eight toy claws (扌) at the same time. Julian Giant Squid is just too clumsy (拙) to do so and so he is unable to open the emergency exit door.

于 = 亅 + 二 : Mnemonic symbol: prepositions (in, at, on, to, ...) are what glue the sentence together. Honey is as sticky as glue, so I'll represent 于 by a honey jar.

Yu the Great (于) was assigned to repair the electronics of the space station's kitchen (Ø2), but instead he was snacking honey from a honey jar (于). Unfortunately his capacitor (二) got stuck in the honey and now he has to use a crowbar (亅) to lever it out.

言 = 亠 + 二 + 口 : The horizontal lines look like sound waves that emerge from an opening: I'll resemble 言 by a megaphone.

言 = 亠 + 二 + 口 : Maud Younger rushes into anthill and in the kitchen she uses a megaphone to loudly announce that the world revolution will soon start. She also tells the people that she has berets for everyone so that everyone will be able to be in style for the revolution. However she doesn't tell that she prepared the berets in another way: to each beret, she attached a mandarin via two capacitors which forms a formidable antenna, so that after the revolution, she'll be able to transmit her speeches directly to the wearers' brains.

词 = 司 + 讠 : The King of Chu (c) has to listen to a boring lecture by a manager (司) just inside the space station's entrance (Ø2). The manager just wrote every word (词) of his speech (词) on an advertising column (讠) and is just reading the speech word by word.
