Memory Hook

Imagine a scoreboard with points lighting up. Each point is a 'dot' — and in Japanese, 'dot' sounds like 'ten' (点). Think: 'Score points are dots — 点 (ten, 'point').'

Cultural Note

In Japan, 『点』 (ten, 'point') is commonly used in educational settings to grade tests or in sports to track scores. For example, a perfect score is often called 『満点』 (manten, 'full points').
