salutation

On-Yomi: レイ、ライ

Koohii stories:

1) [CharleyGarrett] 24-8-2006(213): "Indy, my friend, you must be very careful! If you approach the altar and do not give the proper salutation a large fishhook will rip you away".

2) [Aerin] 15-9-2007(103): You should fish hook (bend/bow) your body before an altar as a form of salutation to God/gods.

3) [Nukemarine] 8-10-2007(54): SALUTATION (a hand salute in this case) was given to the ALTAR by a veteran with a HOOK for his hand. Just keep that mental picture and you own this kanji.

4) [Green_Airplane] 21-7-2008(20): This cult has a really dumb salutation. They form sort of a 'fishhook' on their foreheads with their thumb and index finger. They do it whenever they come near the altar. They say it's 'L' for 'Luck', I say it's 'L' for 'Losers'.

5) [radical_tyro] 19-6-2007(11): Salute the church altar with a bow (bend yourself like a fishhook).
