Welcome to Memory Bank

The site was created to popularize and put into practice the new technique helping to learn new words quickly and easily.

The technique is based on the fact that people learn new words by associating them with words they already know. The best results are achieved when the new word is associated with word/words already learnt in the funny or strange way. The more unusual the association the easier it is to remember the new word.

The site aims to help in the learning process by suggesting words that can be associated with the new word.

At present the words suggested are grouped in the following categories:
- synonyms (words with similar meaning)
- hypernyms (the words with the broader meaning)
- hyponyms (the words with the more specific meaning)
- words sounding similar (to be implemented in the near future)
- rhymes (to be implemented in the near future)

The help with the learning process the following information is also provided:
- definition of the word
- example usage of the given word in the sentence
- part of speech (verb, noun, adjective etc)

The site can be used by pupils learning new words for school, adults intending to expand their vocabulary and of course all the people all over the world learning English and aiming to learn new words to master that language.
