1783. Why are these characters not getting enough sodium in their diet? 矛+⺙+ノ 一+し+、 一+口+、 木+⺾+日+、 女+口+、


Answer:

矛+⺙+ノ  MU, hoko - halberd, spear / The "Bokuzukuri" radical - activity, to strike, hit / Katakana "No" or The "No" radical - diagonal sweeping stroke

一+し+、  ICHI, ITSU, hito(tsu) - one / Hiragana "Shi"or The "Otsu" radical - the second / Comma

一+口+、  ICHI, ITSU, hito(tsu) - one / KOU, kuchi - mouth / Comma

木+⺾+日+、  MOKU, BOKU, ki - tree / The "Kusakanmuri" radical - grass / NICHI, JITSU, hi, ka - sun, day / Comma

女+口+、  JO, NYO, NYOU, onna, me - female, woman / KOU, kuchi - mouth / Comma

The chemical symbol for sodium is "Na". Add ナ (Katakana "Na") to each set of characters to give the following: 

務  MU, tsuto(mu) - work, serve

丸  GAN, maru(i), maru(meru) - round, make round, ball

吏  RI - an official

模  MO, BO - copy, imitate, model

姻  IN - marriage
