Notes
Learning this 四字熟語 is a great way to remember the on readings of right and left. I don't know about you, but learning みぎ and ひだり seemed easy compared to remembering which was う and which was さ.
If you can remember 'right' goes first, saying this fun word will help clear up the confusion. u (right) ou sa (left) ou
