Meaning

Primary

Defend

Mnemonic

They say that flowers held by a turkey on a stool are good to defend yourself with. Even better than a guard dog they say. People are so confused by the turkey sitting on a stool holding flowers that they just lose their will to fight. This turkey is great to defend yourself and your home.

Hints

Picture this turkey holding its flowers while sitting on its stool. Hear it gobbling as it defends everything around it with its mere presence.

Readings

Mnemonic

The only thing this flower-bearing turkey can't defend against is Godzilla (ご). Godzilla is pretty much undefeatable, especially for a turkey. The turkey is totally unable to defend anything from the mighty Godzilla.

Hints

Imagine Godzilla approaching the flower turkey. Hear Godzilla roar as the turkey gobbles in fear before being crushed beneath the massive and scaly foot of Godzilla.
