Number

Mnemonic

There's a mouth in the ground (in our case, it's a hatch), and inside is some kind of prison you can't quite get to. If you've ever seen Lost, this will sound familiar... on the hatch, there's actually a series of numbers that you don't understand.

Hints

What are these numbers? What do they mean? Think over it for a while, get frustrated, and try to figure it out. You can't, though, so you probably won't ever get inside.

Readings

On’yomi

ごう

Kun’yomi

None

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

"You want to know the number to the hatch?" yells an old voice from inside. You say "yes," and the voice gives you the numbers and you're in! You go down into the prison, where there is one prisoner: Grandpa Koichi (ごういち).

Note: For ごう reading mnemonics, we use ごういち (grandpa Koichi) because こういち is used for the こう reading. こう becomes ごう becomes "grandpa ごういち."

Hints

ごういち keeps saying numbers as you free him from the prison. Just one after another. Numbers numbers numbers. Hopefully old man ごういち isn't crazy.
