Meaning Mnemonic

In the capital, a broken dog begins to settle in. This dog used to live in the country, but he kept getting caught in bear and fox traps which busted the poor dog up. The dog didn’t want to live like this, so he decided to settle in the capital city where there aren’t pesky animal traps to get caught in.

Hints

Imagine this dog going to the capital and settling in. The poor dog looks pretty messed up though. The radical for dog in this kanji is a bit modified, so just remember that the dog in this story is all messed up.

Reading Mnemonic

In order to help the dog settle in, the capital cobbler makes him a pair of shoes (しゅう). The shoes help him walk on his hurt legs, but more importantly, they help him relax and feel like a dog again.

Hints

Watch the broken dog settle in to his new shoes in his new home in the capital. The old dog can finally enjoy life!
