Using Acronymic Sentences to Remember Information

If you play the piano, you may have heard of the term "Every good boy does fine", wherein every first letter of each word, E G B D F respectively, represents the notes in the five main lines of the Treble Clef in Music from bottom to top. Notice that it is easier to recall the whole word "Every good boy does fine" rather than memorizing the letters alone.

Making an acronymic sentence is a strategy to help you remember information in a specific order; use it to classify groups, spell tricky words, name the order of objects or places, and many other.

You yourself can form your own acronymic sentence that may be humorous, or have sense or significance to you; you may find the sentence easier to recall with this way. Acronymic sentences may be at a lighter note compared to other strategies in remembering information.

To start making your own acronymic sentence, follow these steps:

Write the piece of information you have to remember

Underline the first letter of each word. If there is more than one word in a piece of information, underline the first letter of the most important word.

You can now start writing a sentence using words that begin with the underlined letter
