Welcome to the Mnemonicizer, the Mnemonic Device Device.
A mnemonic device is a sentence that helps us to memorize a string of words.
For example, music students use "Every Good Boy Does Fine" to remember
the order of notes on the treble clef. (E, G, B, D, F). Math students use
"Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally" to remember the order of arithmetic
operations (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract.). But
the range of usefulness extends beyond music and math. They are an invaluable
resource whenever you are trying to remember something.
To create a mnemonic device, first type in whatever it
is you want to remember in the box below. Look at the first letter in each
word, and then find that letter in the list below. Click on the arrow to
see a list of words that start with that letter. Once the word you like
is in the box, click 'Display' and the word will be displayed to your right.
If you can think of a word not listed, enter it into the text box and press
display. Try to make funny sentences you know you'll remember. Have fun!
select a word from the categories below!
