Mnemonic

There are two people under a canopy on the dirt. What are they doing? It's a thing called sitting. They're using the dirt as a seat for their butts.

Did you know anyone can sit? It doesn't matter if there aren't chairs there.

Mnemonic

You shake your head. People can't just sit on dirt, you think to yourself. There must be a wizard (ざ) around here trying to trick you. You certainly aren't going to be tricked into taking a seat by this wizard.

Hints

Wizards like to watch people sit. So they'll try lots of tricks to make people sit down near them. Don't let a wizard trick you. Don't ever sit down again.
