Koohii stories:

1) [fuaburisu] 10-10-2005(243): There was a man in a village who had a special gift : whenever he shouted and screamed, his mouth became a cornucopia, overflowing with fruits and food of all sorts. Many of the locals thought he was a cruel man, always screaming at his wife, until they realised he was in fact very kind, and his gift brought prosperity to his family.

2) [scottamus] 28-8-2006(133): You can hold a CORNUCOPIA up to your MOUTH (like a megaphone) to SHOUT lounder. Also notice that the shape of CORNUCOPIA implies the shouts are 4 letter words.

3) [stehr] 24-10-2007(57): FOUR!! like in golf, someone shouts four and you see the golf ball right in front of you.

4) [cangy] 19-3-2008(47): Note: the cornucopia primitive is not described adequately in Heisig. It has 3 strokes as opposed to 2 as mentioned in the book, but on the left may have 2 or 3 depending on who you ask… Also, on the left, the long stroke is written first.

5) [synewave] 3-10-2006(27): Your mouth is used 4 shouting.
