5. What does "niño" mean in the phrase, "el niño gordo"?  How can we remember it?*

6. What does "gordo" mean in the phrase, "el niño gordo"?  How can we remember it?**

*"niño" kind of looks like "nine" and a "9-year old boy" is a child or a kid.

**"gordo" kind of sounds like "gorge" and if you "gorge" yourself on food it might make you "gordo"
