I am still working on how to create some interesting "memory palace" / method of loci to assist in learning these numbers.
My first objetive is just to learn the shapes, and associate them with the correct number value.
Note, I have increased the size of the numbers to assist seeing their detail.
Hindi numbers
० 0 : is similar to the Arabic 0
१ 1 : for this, I imagine I am holding up my right hand and arm, with the thumb towards my face and my fingers bent over, and it looks similar to १
२ 2 : Using my left hand I trace around this symbol for 1, and add in the loop at the " wrist "
३ 3 : Looks like an Arabic 3, with a loop added to the bottom
४ 4 : I imagine drawing a necklace with this shape of ४
५ 5 : this is similar to २, in mirror image. so I imagine holding up my left hand, similar to before but with a sharper curve at the wrist, and with my right pointer tracing this - including the loop. Another way is to think of a 4 with an open top, and (i.e. https://wpdevshed.com/wp-content/upload ... /kalam.png ) and add a loop in as well.
६ 6 : A mirror image of the 3 ३, and also is double the 3.
७ 7 : I think of my right ear, and trace my right pointer finger around its edges in an anti clockwise twirl
८ 8 : I think of line drawing of a nose - again using my right hand, and thinking of a face looking to the left
९ 9 : is like a mirror image of 9.
can anyone
- help me with visuals on these ideas ? such as drawings of these images etc ..
- suggest other methods of loci for recalling these symbols ?
- suggest other resources
I also suggest hand writting these characters. Or you could check out a resource like : https://www.iknowmyabc.com/abc_tracing/ ... acing.html
