Meaning Mnemonic

This cow temple is special. This cow must have been very important to have an entire temple dedicated to it.

Hints

Picture a temple dedicated to a single cow. All of the people who come and worship here have a special place in their hearts for the cow.

Reading Mnemonic

This cow is special because it belonged to Tokugawa (とく) Ieyasu, Japan's first shougun and uniter of Japan! He's a super important figure in Japanese history. You should absolutely look him up and read a bit about him (when you're caught up on these lessons, that is).

Hints

You walk up to a statue of the special cow in the temple and see a collar around its neck with that says "Tokugawa Moo Moo" on it. How... special!
