Request

Mnemonic

On the ground is a water drop you spilled, so I request you wipe it up. I would do it myself, but you're the one who spilled it, so I'm requesting you do it and take responsibility for your mistake.

It's a simple request, really. Just wipe up that water drop off the ground.

Mnemonic

Oh, one more thing. I request that you wipe up the water with this cucumber (きゅう).

"But cucumbers are already mostly water, this isn't going to absorb anything!" you cry. Well too bad. That's my request, so you better do it. Figure out how to make the cucumber work.
