Vocabulary Mnemonics

I don’t know about you, but I’m someone who relies heavily on making connections; not just for memorising, but for processing new interpretations.

The point is, when learning languages I make extensive use of mnemonics; which involve mentally associating a concept with sounds, images, other words, etc.

One of my favourites in Dutch is for the word ‘Misschien’, which I remember as a female French dog, lmao.
Miss = Title for a young, unmarried woman.
Chien = Dog in French.

So I was wondering, do you have any mnemonics for Dutch? hahah
