Mnemonics
What a strange word is mnemonic
far easier to say than to write or spell!
It sound like a disease or nonsense incensed to mislead
But after you get over that it makes sense
to use phases the remember hard concepts
and the orders of things thereabouts:
Short Word Left, Longer word Right <> Port - starboard
Every Good Boy Deserves fruit <> Order of notes on the tremble clef
FACE (Music Notes in the Spaces of the Treble Clef) <>
F, A, C, E.
Stalactites hold on tight <> stalagmites might reach the roof one day
Dear Kate, Please Come Over For Great Spaghetti <> Order of taxonomy Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
How I wish I could calculate pi <> The number of letters gives the first seven digits of pi: 3.141592…
My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets <> Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto
ROYGBIV - The colors of the rainbow in order <> Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet
30 Days Hath September, April, June, and November <>To remember the number of days in each month.
Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas (Guitar String Names from thickest to thinnest - standard tuning)<> 6 (Low E), 5 (A), 4 (D), 3 (G), 2 (B), 1 (High E).
