🏛️ Memory Palace Example
Picture transferring grocery products to your place: milk at the entrance, bread on the couch, eggs on the TV.
Then, mentally walk through the house to pick the items up.
📖 Narrative Chaining
Make a story with your list of groceries: "A dancing BANANA wore MILK shoes, was juggling EGGS and skating with a BREAD skateboard."
It helps the mind with sequential connections and retains them longer.
🎵 Rhyme-Based Mnemonics
"Thirty days hath September" is used to remember month durations.
"I before E except after C" helps with spelling. Singing conventional patterns improves retention.
🔢 Number-Shape System
Link digits with forms: 0 = ball, 1 = candle, 2 = swan, 8 = snowman.
Transform phone numbers into vivid mental pictures for easier recall.
🌍 Keyword Foreign Language
The Spanish word "pato" (duck) is similar to English "pot". Picture a duck in a pot swimming.
Linking sound to meaning through imagery aids memory.
✋ Body-Part Pegs
Designate body parts for items: toes = first item, knees = second, thighs = third.
Touch the parts in order while recalling the items systematically.
