Lu Posted August 26, 2008 at 04:22 PM Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 at 04:22 PM Not often, but when I happen to see such a similarity I use it to remember the word. One is 忐忑, 'tante' meaning 'aunt' in Dutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horse Posted August 27, 2008 at 01:47 PM Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 at 01:47 PM This sounds like some of the mnemonic techniques Barry Buzan talks about in his memory books. I dont use the trick you're talking about but if you need help remembering characters i cant recommend 'Use your Memory' and 'Master your Memory' enough, they have quite literally revolutionized the way i study. check them out....
