右

right

In order to distinguish the pronunciation of 左 (zuǒ​, left) and 右 (yòu, right), think of 工作 (gōng​zuò, work), the first part of which appears in 左, the latter resembling the sound (作, zuò, and 左, zuǒ). For ​右 think of 友 (yǒu, friend), since it looks similar, or 口 (kǒu, mouth), as this may be found in the character. by xiaomake
