The Japanese language word "henohenomoheji" (へのへのもへじ) breaks down into
the seven hiragana characters: "He, no, he, no, mo, he, ji", which are used
by school children to draw a face in hiragana letters.
The first two "he" are the eyebrows, the "no" are the eyes, the "mo" is a
nose, and the last "he" is the mouth. The outline of the face is made by the
character "ji". Children use "henohenomoheji" as the faces of kakashi
(scarecrows).
