Dear all,
are there really no other mnemonics or are they perhaps too childish to
post them on this list? I also like to use the verse rāmo rājamaniḥ
etc., but rather in order to recall the order and numbering of
vibhaktis.
Is there a common word for "mnemonic" in Sanskrit?

Dear Antonia,
I use the verse rāmo rājamaniH ... for the masc.sg. forms of the -a
declension.
Best wishes,
Sven

Betreff: [INDOLOGY] Sanskrit mnemonics?
Dear all,
Whenever I've learnt a language in a classroom setting, we'd get
mnemonics to help us remember word forms or uses. (I am thinking of
things like 'after si, nisi, num, ne, all the ali's fly away', or 'If
one shwa by another is hounded, the first is silent, the second
sounded.')
Do any of you have any such mnemonics (no matter how silly - or dare I
say: the sillier, the better?) for Sanskrit? So far I only have
minuscule things like reminding students of Har*e* Kṛṣṇa (for
the vocative of i-stems), and also verses like
gurureva gatirgurumeva bhaje guruṇaiva sahāsmi namo gurave |
na guroḥ paramaṃ śiśurasmi gurormatirastu gurau mama pāhi guro
||
If you have anything you use that works well with your students, I'd
be grateful if you were willing to share it. I'll happily sum up
everything I get in an email to the List.
Many thanks, as always,
Antonia _______________________________________________ INDOLOGY
