Radical Combination


Meaning

Peach

Mnemonic

The tree has an omen growing from it, one single peach that is the size of a house. Inside is a child who will save the village from demons.

Of course, this tree omen of a peach refers to momotaro, the little boy who was born from a peach (you should look it up if you don't know this children's story).

Mnemonic

If momotaro (もも) wasn't enough, think about the peach growing larger and larger. You want it to grow bigger, so you yell at it: "MORE! MORE!" (もも).

It grows bigger everytime you say "MORE MORE" twice. If you say it just once, it stays the same.
