I'm an English speaker trying to learn Japanese Kanji using mnemonics. Mnemonics for Kanji are created from the primitives that make them up. The Kanji for Tax has the primitives wheat and devil, so an example would be, "Taxes are like the devil taking away your hard earned wheat". Can you create a mnemonic for the Kanji meaning Wish that has the primitives clock and heart?
Sure! How about, "A wish from the heart beats like the ticking of a clock, reminding us to never give up hope."
