Maybe this will be useful to somebody

Im gonna show this to my japanese co-workers and see what they think

In other words I have another one for Construction 建設(Ken Setsu) the blocks one by one and constructs the building.

and another which makes no sense but 情報 I remember the reading well enough so far but “The spicy clothes cause me to learn more information”

Not sure why it stuck but who am I to question

My weirdest mnemonic devices are the ones that make absolutely no sense but somehow work (sometimes).

For example, I’ve been trying to remember 疼く=うずくwith no success, but I did remember that 冬=トウ, so now when I see 疼く, I think “ok 疼→冬→トウ…”, bam, out of nowhere うずく pops to mind.

I wish I knew how or why that works to repurpose it for other words.
