Mnemonic

The evening is when all the youths (ゆう) come outside to play.

Young people love staying up the entire evening doing youth-people things, and it's really obnoxious for us curmudgeonly folk. Note: All the ゆう readings will use the word "youths" as a keyword for the mnemonic, so bear that in mind for any future ゆう reading you'll encounter.
