What verb is in 覚­えてみたい?


I found this YouTube comment:

きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅとっても可愛い〜(*ﾉ∀ﾉ)ダンスとか覚­えてみたいと思いまーすww﻿

I'm not sure how to parse 覚­えてみたい. The context seems to make it have nothing
to do with 覚る, and in any case the え 送り仮名 doesn't make a bit of sense with
さとる. Is this a typo or some word not in my dictionary?




From the given sentence, it sounds like someone is talking about how he/she is
wanting to learn (or memorize) the dance moves and choreography of a song by
the singer that goes by the name "[Kyary Pamyu
Pamyu](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyary_Pamyu_Pamyu)".

In this case,「みたい」is actually a form of the verb「みる」which can mean "to try".
When 「みる」is attached to a verb, it simply means: " **to try** " \+ _**verb**_.
So when another form of「みる」is attached to a verb, the meaning will still have
something to do with the idea of "to try".

Here is a breakdown of where 覚{おぼ}えてみたい comes from, in this case:

> 覚{おぼ}える ＝ to learn, to memorize
>
> 覚{おぼ}えてみる ＝ [I] will try to learn _(or memorize)_
>
> 覚{おぼ}えてみたい ＝ [I] want to try to learn _(or memorize)_
