A magnet is a lode
stone

Vertical
strings
are often
accompanied
by hanging weights
Written by: LilLeo
Via : Vertical measures of height or length are taken with a
string
and frequently
accompany
/ジュウ horizontal measures of depth or breadth.
People who are overly concerned with height are often conceited, self-indulgent individuals in need of a course correction.
Even on Jupiter {ジュウ} a
thread
must
obey
the dictates {たて} of gravity, so you can use it to find the height of the vertical.
Written by: Anonymous123

counting animals
. Our task for today is to measure their height using this jute {ジュウ}
thread
. Hold the thread taut {たて} and don't include the animal's
horns
.
Phono-semantic: Phonetic
“ジョウ” Semantic
“thread”. The kyujitai uses “follow” as its phonetic component.

When you are self indulgent you will go to any length or height to satisfy yourself, the
thread
symbolizes the looseness of the morals that
accompany
such a person.

obeys
the rules. He makes sure his
threads
hang down vertically, like a tall building たて-もの

head
from reaching the vertical height, so he can't go on the ride.
