Heisig story:

The kanji for a husband or "head of the family" is based on the kanji for large and an extra line near the top for the "head." Recall the kanji for heavens already learned back in frame 457, and be sure to keep your story for this kanji different.

Koohii stories:

3) [Clint] 22-10-2008(21): After marriage, most men let themselves go a bit, and the result is predictable: one large husband.

4) [CharleyGarrett] 9-6-2006(18): My husband is sent from heaven, and his head still pokes out a little.

5) [gavmck] 10-12-2009(7): The bride of Frankenstein owns this kanji. It represents her husband: large with a long bolt through his neck.
