For goodness sake! Please remember this isn't "sake" as in お酒! It's the English "sake," that rhymes with "bake," "cake," and "steak." Oops.. now I'm hungry.

Mnemonic

For the sake of convenience, companies will use eagles (い) for delivery jobs in the future. Just put in an order, and it'll be at your doorstep in no time flat. Eagles are like, super fast at delivery.

Hints

See this eagle as it comes to deliver your order just for your sake. Scree! Hear its wings flap and your package plop down on your porch as it's delivered.
