Mnemonic

When you see the king you need to say, "Oh (おう) King! Oh King, oh no, oh why are you looking at me like that? Oh King... you aren't going to chop off my head are you? OH NO!"

Hints

You need to be polite when you talk to the king and add "Oh" to the beginning, otherwise the king will be pretty angry and bad things might happen.

We're going to use the 王 kanji for all おう mnemonics from now on. So make sure you always remember to say おう King!
