Acting


Radical Combination


Meaning

Acting, Perform

Mnemonic

There's going to be a tsunami. So you get up on your roof. You see people across the street, in a rice paddy. They watch as you put on a pair of fins. And you begin acting. This is your last chance to perform!

But why? Because this acting will distract everyone from the impending tsunami. You dance around in your fins, pretending to swim. It's a wonderful performance.
