大丈夫(だいじょうぶ) | No problem. ★★★★★ CCW 大 (big) + 丈夫 (sturdy, firm,healthy) = 大丈夫 (No problem.) literally, 'No problem.' But, don't believe a Japanese if they say this. A salariman can get drunk, stumble into the street, get his legs cut off by a bus, and still claim to be 'daijoubu.'
丈夫(じょうぶ) | sturdy, firm,healthy ★☆☆☆☆ 丈 (robust) + 夫 (husband) = 丈夫 (sturdy, firm,healthy)

才 | skill / age | cross-stroke goes LEFT |
丈 | robust | cross-stroke goes RIGHT |

The cross-stroke for talent goes to the left. Say to your self, "I got so much skillz, I take on all rappers until I am the only rapper LEFT."

"The RIGHT-wing in America is still very robust, despite systematically passing legislation that economically devastates their constituency."
