Thanks Sandy. That helps a lot. So, I am connecting my list of ideas/words I want to learn with numbers or letters. When I use my pre-memorized anchorman list, however, I connect the ideas/words with the anchor words and their associated numbers.
So: either I create a sort of nonce (for the occasion) ABC list (as you do above), or I use a pre-memorized anchor list; the latter is less direct, in a way (because of the intermediate pre-memorized word)...but on the other hand it gives me rich associations with those core words as well as giving me immediate number associations with which to organize ideas. Is this correct?
