一点上了天，黄河两道湾，八字大张口，言字往进走，你一扭我一扭，你一长我一长，当中加个马大王，心字底月字旁，挂个丁丁叫马杠，坐着车车逛咸阳。

It is suggested that the information in this section should be tabulated or presented in other more organized ways.
There are a number of ditties familiar to Shaanxi residents used as mnemonics to aid recall of how the character is written.

One version is as follows:

A stroke rises up to heaven (一點上了天),

and the yellow river has two bends (黃河兩道灣).

The character "eight" (八) opens its mouth (八字大張口),

and the character "speak (言)" walks in (言字往進走).

You make a twist (你一扭), and I make a twist (我一扭),

you grow (你一長), I grow (我一長),

and we add a horse (馬) king in between (當中加個馬大王).

The heart character forms the ba<x>se (心字底),

the moon (月) character stands at the side(月字旁),

and we ride a carriage to tour the streets of Xianyang (坐着車車逛咸陽)
