Meaning

Primary

Play

Mnemonic

Throw a drunkard in a cage with a tiger and some spikes and the tiger will have the time of its life playing with them! Think of all the tiger play time possibilities!

Hints

If you were the tiger how would you play with the drunkard?

Readings

On’yomi

ぎ, げ

Kun’yomi

ざ, じゃ, たわむ

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

If you aren't the tiger, watching it play is a little like watching someone's head get cut off with a guillotine (ぎ). In fact, you don't want to watch it play at all anymore.

Hints

What would you rather watch? A guillotine at work or a tiger playing like this?
