Contract Treaty Drugs Medicine
The bottle of booze radical is part of the medicine/hospital radical. If one takes 4 ounces of whiskey or vodka to stave off the symptoms of a common cold, or some NyQuil DayQuil or 44, then you have signed a contract that you can't get out of. You must drowse!
The two words are the same except the one on the right has been "working out".
The word on the right is the "yaku" of Yakuza. The one on the left is used for "Johann" and "York".
Cities that include this word include:
Johannesburg
New York
Mao Tai is the greatest of all Chinese alcohols, made from sorghum spirits and limestone water a la Kentucky, from China north of Thailand. There is a similarly packaged alcohol, called "Low Tai" with a low price. Mao means "couch grass"; it's the opposite of "cramp bark". Mao Tai sells for $30 in Boston Chinatown. It's 140 proof. It doesn't leave a hangover, because it is supposed to be medicinal, like all East Asian alcohols.
Mediterreanean wine is a new thing under the sun in East Asia. It's very popular.
Here's the word separated into components by color. Note the guy trapped in the boxlike area, by the big aquamarine Gidget woman. And the nice bottle at the bottom of the word in cinnamon red.
