Do you know any examples of Mnemonic devices - coding, acronyms, acrostics, association?

Does anybody have any examples of these or know a site that has any. I've seen different mnemonic sites but none of them seem to have examples of these specific devices.





I'm on coding. I have to show other examples besides reverse coding.


They show me BIR=RIB WOC=COW MIR=RIM.


Does anybody have anymore examples of coding or any of the other ones? Thanks.

Reply:A Mnemonic device is method for enhancing memory. When using the term mnemonic device, most people are referring to a trick that one uses to help memorize something.





Mnemonic devices can help with remembering peoples' names and faces as well as with remembering words in a foreign language
