Memory Hook
Imagine a tiny 'kernel' at the core of a fruit, like a peach pit. 'Kernel' sounds like '核' (kaku, 'nucleus / Kernel') — it's the central part!
Cultural Note
In Japanese, 『核』 (kaku, 'nucleus / Kernel') is used in scientific contexts like 『原子核』 (genshikaku, 'atomic nucleus') or in computing as 『カーネル』 (kāneru, 'kernel'), often borrowed from English but related to the same core idea.
