| Koohii Story 1 | People with wooden legs are renowned for dithering over whether to decorate them with a drop of paint or not. |
| Koohii Story 2 | "Make the story as you need, but 躊hesitate (#2996) and this kanji 躇dither (#2994) mean the same thing and are used as a unit exclusively..... 躊躇(ちゅうちょ)する= 躊躇う(ためらう)= hesitate, falter, waver. (Heisig RTK2 error: 躊躇 does not mean 'warning') My stupid suggestion for a story: Give flowers to your Peg-Legged love doll. If you diddle (I mean dither) her, maybe she will get a little wet, at least a drop worth." |
