I was bamboozled with these today. Does anyone have a tip from school to help me remember which is which?

I learned it that in the word abduction, the stems on the B and D are far apart from eachother. Wish i had the other way that yall came up with when I was learning. I love it!!

Ditto Sunnygirl !:)

We were an adbucted child class too, great way to lean it.
