Meaning

Primary

Oppress

Mnemonic

Tigers and wolverines have one big thing in common and it's that the government likes to oppress them. It doesn't matter if you're the animal or a mutant X-Men hybrid. The government will go out of its way to oppress you if you are one.

Hints

Imagine being a tiger or a wolverine or a tiger-wolverine and being oppressed by the government just because you're different. Imagine being stuck in a cage. Not being allowed to vote. It's awful!

Readings

ぎゃく

Kun’yomi

しいた

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

Tiger and wolverine people are so oppressed that the only thing they're allowed to amuse themselves with is Gak (ぎゃく). You know, that weird goo they made us play with when we were kids? Well that's not so fun when it's all you have.

Hints

Imagine being a tiger/wolverine girl and being so oppressed that you can only sit in a cage, playing with goopy Gak all day. This blows...
