pinfruit is for memorizing numbers, such as credit card numbers and bank identifiers. It acts as a word sequence generator for numbers, automating the laborious part of mnemonic major system, an old mnemonic technique. It all works on the principle that it is easier to remember words than numbers.
On the most basic level, the major system is a method of translating numbers into words and words back into numbers. There are usually many ways to translate a number into words, but there is always only one number that corresponds to a given sequence of words. For each of the ten digits there is a set of one or more phonemes. The digit 0 is remembered by the phonemes 's' and 'z', as in yes and zoo. Here is the complete list as supported by pinfruit. The last column features an explanation by which to remember the association.
|zero starts with z, s sounds similar
|t has similar shape to 1, d sounds similar
|n has two downstrokes
|m has three downstrokes
|last letter of four
|L is the roman numeral for 50
|jaw, show, issue, witch
|capital K contains two sevens
|f resembles 8
|p and b resemble 9
Note: Mnemonic Major System is a phonetic system. Phonems usually correspond to letters but not always. For instance the word ice is pronounced with the sound s, so in the Mnemonic Major System it encodes the number 0. Another example is big issue which encodes 976 (9-b, 7-g, 6-sh), not 9700.
pinfruit helps in finding the right sequence of words for a number. It knows about more than 100 000 words and their pronounciations, and can find all possible words encoding a prefix of a number in a blink of an eye.
For almost all numbers there are hundreds if not thousands of possible sequences to encode it. The best sequences of words depend on the cotext of the number, for example what it is for, and your personal preferences. It also helps if the words in the sequence are easy to visualize. You, the user, are building the sequence from the multitiude of options offered.
pinfruit lets you pick your sequence word by word. Each time you select a word, you encode a part of the number, and a list of words good for the remainder of the digits shows up. You can backtrack any time using the backtrack arrow.
The words are color coded according to their part of speech. There are three highlight classes: verb, noun and words that work in either role (an in-between color). On top of that, adjectives are marked bold. Some words are not colored due to missing information.
The superscript denotes the length of the digit sequence encoded by the word and shows only if it is three or greater.
Let's assume that you want to memorize '92841'. Type it into the entry field in the app. As you type, pinfruit is already searching for possible words to encode the beginning of the number. You will see many words to choose from, one of them will be pin -- it encodes 92. Once you click pin, you will see words for encoding the remaining digits: 841. Next, click fruit and you are done. There will be no more words showing up because the whole number is encoded already as pin fruit. 92841 is a relatively short number, usually it will take more than 2 words to encode a number. You can click on the back arrow to backtrack, that is, to undo the last word selection.
Pinfruit ni kwa ajili ya kumbukumbu namba, kama vile namba za kadi ya mkopo na vitambulisho vya benki. Ni vitendo kama neno mfululizo jenereta kwa ajili ya idadi, automating sehemu laborious ya mnemonic mfumo mkubwa, mbinu ya zamani mnemonic. Yote hayo hufanya kazi kwa msingi wa kwamba ni rahisi kukumbuka maneno kuliko namba. Katika kiwango cha msingi zaidi, mfumo mkuu ni njia ya kutafsiri namba katika maneno na maneno nyuma katika namba. Kwa kawaida kuna njia nyingi za kutafsiri namba katika maneno, lakini sikuzote kuna namba moja tu inayolingana na mfululizo fulani wa maneno. Kwa kila moja ya tarakimu kumi kuna seti ya phonemes moja au zaidi. "Hata hivyo, ""0"" ni jina la phoneme ya ""s"" na ""z,"" kama ilivyo katika ""yes"" na ""zoo.""" Hapa ni orodha kamili kama mkono na pinfruit. Safu ya mwisho ina ufafanuzi wa jinsi ya kukumbuka uhusiano huo. "Kama ""k"" inamaanisha ""k,"" ""k"" inamaanisha ""k,"" ""k"" inamaanisha ""k,"" ""k"" inamaanisha ""k,"" ""k"" inamaanisha ""k,"" ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"" na ""k"" inamaanisha ""k"".""" Kwa kawaida fonemu hufanana na herufi lakini si mara zote. "Kwa mfano, neno ""ice"" linatamkwa kwa sauti ya ""s,"" kwa hiyo katika mfumo wa Mnemonic Major System linatumia namba 0." "Kama mfano, ""big issue"" ni namba 967 (b, g, 6), na sio 967 (b, g, 6), lakini pinfruit husaidia kupata mfululizo sahihi wa maneno kwa nambari." Inajua zaidi ya maneno 100,000 na matamshi yao, na inaweza kupata maneno yote yanayoweza kuingiza kiambishi cha nambari kwa kunguruma kwa jicho. Kwa karibu namba zote kuna mamia kama si maelfu ya mfululizo uwezekano wa encode yake. Mfuatano bora wa maneno hutegemea cotext ya idadi, kwa mfano ni nini, na upendeleo wako binafsi. Pia husaidia ikiwa maneno yaliyo katika mfululizo huo ni rahisi kuwazia. Wewe, mtumiaji, ni kujenga mfululizo kutoka multitiude ya chaguzi zinazotolewa. Pinfruit inakuwezesha kuchagua mfululizo wako neno kwa neno. Kila mara unapochagua neno, unasafisha sehemu ya nambari, na orodha ya maneno mazuri kwa nambari zilizobaki huonekana. Unaweza kurudi nyuma wakati wowote kwa kutumia mshale wa kurudi nyuma. Maneno hayo yameorodheshwa kwa rangi kulingana na sehemu yao ya usemi. Kuna madarasa matatu ya kuangazia: kitenzi, jina na maneno ambayo hufanya kazi katika jukumu lolote (rangi ya kati). Zaidi ya hayo, sifa zimeandikwa kwa herufi nzito. Maneno fulani hayana rangi kwa sababu ya kukosa habari. Superscript inaonyesha urefu wa mfululizo wa tarakimu encoded na neno na inaonyesha tu kama ni tatu au zaidi. Kwa mfano, unaweza kufikiria kuwa unataka kujifunza kwa makini namba 92841. Type katika uwanja wa kuingia katika programu. Unapokuwa ukiandika, pinfruit tayari inatafuta maneno yanayoweza kuingiza mwanzo wa nambari. "Kama unavyoona, kuna maneno mengi ya kuchagua, mojawapo ni ""pin"" ambayo ni namba ya 92." "Kama wewe click ""PIN"" utaona maneno ya kuingiza tarakimu zilizobaki: 841." Kisha, bonyeza matunda na umemaliza. Hakutakuwa na maneno zaidi kuonyesha juu kwa sababu idadi nzima ni encoded tayari kama matunda pini. Nambari 92841 ni namba fupi, kwa kawaida inachukua zaidi ya maneno mawili kuingiza nambari. Unaweza bonyeza kwenye mshale wa nyuma kurudi nyuma, ambayo ni, kufuta uteuzi wa neno la mwisho.
