Kanji of the Day : Apricot

this is the kanji for tree:

if you combine it with the kanji for mouth ()

you can get this : . It's a mouth open, waiting under a tree. This kanji means apricot.

So I'll never forget the kanji for apricot because I just think of open mouths catching falling apricots. Yum.
