Reading: あめ
What if the rain actually tried to aim (あめ) for you? As in, drops would move out of their normal flight path just to hit you on your head? You’d be a lot wetter, that’s for sure.
Imagine a world wear each rain drop had to choose a target to aim for. How strange would rainfall be? Also, あめ and “aim” don’t really sound too much alike, but the goal is to use “aim” to get to あめ, so make sure to take note of that in your mind as you learn the reading.
