Speech has volume. This character looks like when you turn up the volume, at the bottom there is a “cero”, then you turn it up 2 lines, until you reach the top or the roof.

The whole thing looks like a clipboard with the writing of a script. One would use the clip board to read their speech.

Write it in repetition, horizontal line three times, like san 三，and then a box under them, like kou 口. Just don’t forget the dash on top of the first line.

言 is words. If a person write some words for someone else, it becomes a letter 信 (yin)

There’s a small pen mark on top, followed by 3 lines of “text”, then the mouth radical to show that someone is speaking.

To me this is an easier character to memorize, I just think of 3 lines, the top one with an accent and a square in the bottom.

I like remembering this character by thinking of how a SPEECH has lines and there are 2 lines between the top component and the bottom. The bottom component is KOU which means MOUTH and you use it to say WORDS of a SPEECH.
