Evaluate

Mnemonic

You should say "peace" before you evaluate a situation. That way everyone will know where you’re coming from. If you’re honest and say "peace" before you evaluate a situation out loud, everyone will know where you stand.

Hints

What situation would you like to evaluate? Be sure to say "peace" before doing so. Imagine yourself doing this out loud and think of what you would say.

Mnemonic

When you say "peace," you end up making a really bad pun and you hear somebody say “Heyo!” (ひょう) You look at the people around you and try to evaluate who said heyo, but you can’t tell. You start talking again when somebody exclaims “That’s what she said” and another person shouts “Heyo!” once again, but you still can’t evaluate who’s saying these things.

Hints

Imagine yourself trying to explain a situation you’re about to evaluate and your audience keeps shouting “Heyo!” every other sentence. Imagine how frustrating that would be. Get angry at your rude audience and how much they shout “Heyo.”
