Meaning

Primary

Man

Mnemonic

Rice paddy power comes from a man. One man, in fact. He's running on a big wheel next to the rice paddy and providing all of the power for the rice to grow and be harvested.

Hints

Picture the power this man is generating! Now look at the next rice paddy and you'll see it's on a different power grid with a different man powering it.

Readings

On’yomi

だん, なん

Kun’yomi

おとこ

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

A man can power an entire rice paddy until dawn (だん). Once dawn comes they need a little break, so they nap. But once dawn is over, they're back at it again!

Hints

Picture the man watching as the first light of dawn tints the color of the sky, turning it pink and orange. He stops working, lies down, and falls asleep.
