Koohii stories:

1) [brian44] 14-11-2007(87): Your ear is like the eye on the side of your head for seeing things, but there is hair around it that creates jagged lines.

2) [delbertmon] 30-11-2009(39): Just remember it.

3) [fuaburisu] 10-10-2005(36): Pictograph, see book. * The primitive meaning can easily be extended to ear plugs.

4) [andresito] 9-5-2009(20): Deaf people use their ears as eyes. An ear is just a modified eye.

5) [DavidZ] 29-12-2009(12): Correct stroke order: Begin with capital T, add two horizontals from capital F. Then add the "scissors" from 斗 Big Dipper (#1177 斗)… Remember: the horizontals overextend at all 4 corners, but the verticals overextend ONLY at the bottom right corner… 耳 [みみ].
