There is 多 in this character and it means ‘a lot’. And we often say ‘enough’ to the things that is too much.

how i memorize this character: the right side of this character is 多, which means a lot. thus, when you have a lot of things, you should have enough to sustain you (in whatever you are doing).

(duo) 多 character with with what looks like a part of 喝 or 渴 containing a mouth this time.. Something is blocking the mouth from getting 多 abundance hence NOT ENOUGH.

there is a mouth radical and 多(a lot). On the whole, it gives me the idea that someone saying 多. (like it is a lot, enough)

It looks like a door that is closed to birds. I remember it because they have enough birds in the cage and don’t want anymore.

The right part means “many/much” and the left part looks like it is turning their back on them indicating “enough”.

the 多 charcter means a lot so gou means you are content with what you have and do not need more

This character includes two Hanzi. The first one is 句 which indicates the pronunciation and 多 character means “a lot” and also can mean “ENOUGH”

The right component means a lot and when you have a lot of something you usually have enough of something. The left component helps me remember how this character is pronounced if you know the chinese character and sound for dog.

looks like one hook is holding a box and saying ‘its ENOUGH’ and looking the other side. while 2 fishes are trying to come inside the box.

the second half of 够 looks similar to 多 (duo). Although the o and u are in different spaces, it gives me an idea of the pronunciation and pinyin for gou.
