青(あお、あおい、セイ、ショウ)

青

Meaning: blue/green*

Readings: あお、あお、セイ、ショウ

Components: 月 (moon), and “growing”

My hack: I think of the song “Blue Moon” and change some of the lyrics.

Blue Moon

You saw me growing alone….

*Traditionally blue and green are covered by the same word 青, but in modern Japanese the word 緑(みどり)refers to green as most English speakers understand it. Traffic lights are still considered 青 though!
