Meaning

Primary

Measure

Mnemonic

A tsunami will pick up a bunch of shellfish and dump them on your shore, so you take a knife and measure them.

Hints

You can't eat shellfish that are too small, so you place your knife along them to measure them. If they're big enough, you stick the knife in and eat them raw.

Readings

On’yomi

そく

Kun’yomi

はか

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

All of the shellfish you measure that are too small go into your sock (そく). Once the sock is full, you swing it around your head and lob it back into the ocean.

Hints

If you measure one of these shellfish and it's too small, stuff it right into your sock. Then once the sock measures about 12 shellfish long, toss it back to sea!
