Creating Frameworks For Learning Languages

A Table Of Sounds — Linguistic Symbols Scaffolding (From Pan-Lists To Pangrams)

World’s first customer complaint (written in the Akkadian language in cuneiform script) is almost 4,000 years old.

How do we get alphabets into our mnemonic system? An approach would to create a mnemonic framework to hold them. Here we suggest a way to create a loci system of words that succinctly comprises all the alphabets. This will compact the information into a meaningful arrangement which can be evoked with tactical recall instruments which we suggested in our system.

Here we create `pan-lists` and in later works, we will create pangrams.

pangram:  piece of text that uses all the letters of the alphabet. Example: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

The strategy is to learn the table of sounds from the `pan-list`. Then proceed to the learning of the pangram as a ‘further compressed look-up table’.

If you can’t beat them, arrange to have them beaten. — George Carlin (May 12, 1937 — June 22, 2008)
