Line of Text
Line, Row
counter, noun
You write the word go on a line of text. See the word "go" on that line, and think about where you're going.
This word can also be used for rows (horizontal lines in Excel and other spreadsheets).
There are two on'yomi readings for this kanji, but when it's used to mean lines of text, it's pronounced as ぎょう. Here's a mnemonic to help you remember that:
You write out another line of text asking for some gyoza (ぎょう). You write out that line of text slowly and carefully, in your very best handwriting. Turns out you were going to a gyoza restaurant and you want to make sure you impress the gyoza chef, so that they give you a ton of gyoza.
