Etymology

詉 combines 言 (speech) with 奴, which likely contributes the sound. The exact historical meaning is uncertain, but it may relate to noisy or abusive speech.

Meaning mnemonic

With 言 (words) and 奴 (a servant or slave), imagine a servant speaking loudly or complaining, creating noise. This may hint at a meaning related to clamor or abusive speech.

Reading mnemonic

For ドウ, imagine a loud 'doh!' sound coming from the servant's mouth: doh -> ドウ, as the servant complains noisily.
