638. What is it about these characters that makes you want to repeat yourself? 王+今 十+工+ヒ+口 卩+ケ+良 ニ+口+刀 斤+貝


Answer:

王+今  OU - king / KON, ima - now, this 

十+工+ヒ+口  JUU, tou, to - ten / KOU, KU - artisan, skill, work / Katakana "Hi" / KOU, kuchi - mouth

卩+ケ+良  The "Fushizukuri" radical - stamp, seal / Katakana "Ke" / RYOU, yo(i) - good

ニ+口+刀  Katakana "Ni" or NI, futa(tsu), futa - two / KOU, kuchi - mouth / TOU, katana - sword

斤+貝  KIN - unit of weight, loaf / KAI - shellfish

They all make another character if the same radical is used more than once.
