NumberThink for Android

11 things about NumberThink

1. Tap the star button (you have to close this screen first) to see a list of which sounds are associated with each number.

2. By combining the sounds to form words, you just need to remember the words to remember the number.

3. For example, if you want to remember the number 91, you could simply remember the word "bat", since "b" is associated with 9 and "t" is associated with 1, and "a" isn't associated with a number.

4. In the Major System, each digit of a number is associated with a sound (not a letter).

5. You could also remember the word "bet" since "e" is also not associated with a number.

6. To test your knowledge, tap the Quiz button and then enter the number for the word or phrase shown.

7. Some sounds are not associated with numbers (a, e, i, o, u and w) so these are used to help form words.

8. To help you learn, tap the Teach button and then enter a number to see what the word is.

9. NumberThink is a learning aid for the Major System, a well-known technique for remembering numbers by associating them with words.

10. A common use of the Major System is to use it to create a set of specific "peg" words for all the numbers from 1 to 100.

11. This can make it easier to build a phrase for particular number since you always use the same set of peg words.
