Mnemonic is a memory aid that comes from a Greek word, ‘mnemonic,’ which means mindful. An abbreviation, mental image, or rhyme helps people remember something. It is also known to be a technique for developing remembering devices called mnemonics. These can be used to remember years of the reigns of Kings and Queens of England, phone numbers, and names of new department colleagues. In other words, a mnemonic is a tool that helps remember certain facts or amounts of information. These can be remembered as an image, Digital Content, acronym, rhyme, song, or sentence. Moreover, mnemonics help us remember facts, particularly useful when things are important. Let’s take a look at a few examples of mnemonics-
- BECAUSE- Big elephants can always understand small elephants
- FRIEND- Fred rushed in, eating nine doughnuts
- DOES- Daddy only eats sandwiches
- LAUGH- Laughing aunts under green hats
- SAID- Snakes and insects dance
