Meaning

Primary

Yield

Mnemonic

You see a flag by the exit letting you know to yield. There’s cross traffic just outside the exit, and the flag lets you know that you need to yield to them.

Hints

Look at this flag telling you to yield. Now look through the exit right by the flag. You can see a bunch of people out there walking. Imagine standing by the exit, yielding to the other people until you have an opening. Hear the hustle and bustle of the people as you wait.

Readings

On’yomi

くつ

Kun’yomi

かが

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

Even though the flag told you to yield, you’re starting to lose your patience. The people walking outside the exit are all a bunch of crazy old coots (くつ)! These crazy coots keep walking right in front of the door, getting in the way. The old coots aren’t even going anywhere, they just keep looping around to obstruct the way!

Hints

Darn coots! Forget the yield flag, it’s time to exit. Imagine busting out of the exit, punching and pushing your way through the old coots. Hear them scream and shout “Augh! My hip!” as you plow through them.
