Meaning

Pot

Mnemonic

A gold man has one mustache above his lip and one mustache below his lip and keeps all his extra mustaches safely tucked away in a pot. This man is made of gold and has a lot of money. That’s how he can afford to groom two mustaches at the same time. If anything should happen to one, he has plenty of back up mustaches in his mustache storage pot.

Picture this double mustachioed gold man as he rifles through his pot of mustaches. Imagine how ticklish they must be.

Mnemonic

The mustachioed man’s wife asks if he loves his pot of mustaches more than he loves her. “Nah babe (なべ),” he says. “Nah, babe. Nah.”

Imagine yourself as this golden man with the mustache (and another mustache). Say “Nah, babe” over and over again like you’re trying to convince your wife that you actually love her more than your pot of luxurious mustaches.
