Meaning

Primary

Pillar

Mnemonic

This tree is the master of a pillar. The pillar is subservient to its tree master because the tree is so great and awesome and big and cool and stuff. The pillar has great respect for its tree master.

Hints

See the pillar next to the tree master. See the pillar bow over and over in veneration of its tree master.

Readings

On’yomi

ちゅう

Kun’yomi

はしら

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

While bowing, the pillar accidentally smashes Chewbacca (ちゅう). The pillar is horrified for having murdered Chewbacca, his tree master’s closest friend. The pillar is going to be punished.

Hints

Hear the crack and snap of branches as the tree beats the crap out of the pillar for having murdered Chewbacca. Unforgivable.
