| Koohii Story 1 | Hint: This kanji is NOT soil on top of mend, as Heisig claims - that would duplicate one of the strokes. Instead, it is 10 on top of mend. So my story is: If you run 10 miles, you will need to mend your socks! |
| Koohii Story 2 | The sports ground needs MENDING after the game as the players have been RUNNING around which has caused the ground to be chopped up. |
