bó

Left: body part 月/肉, right: to announce 尃 (just now 甫 with skillful hand 寸) [A hand

for holding an item 丶 is what I need 用 just now] cf. elbow 肘

The body part, that somehow looks like the upper body 甫 and where my 'skillful hand' 寸 is, is the shoulder.

肉	body part	This radical is on the left in compound words and is simplified as "月", which then looks like “moon, month 月”, but still has the meaning “body part”.
尃	to announce	. just now 甫 and with a skillful hand 寸
甫	just, just now
寸	skillful hand	Image of a hand 一 forearm 丨 and pulse 丶. It was originally also the distance of one inch (Length: 1 ts'wun = 3.72 cm) from the hand's palm to the pulse. This also stood for a small amount. In the mnemonic, it is used as "skillful hand".
