keyword techniquen
(in second language learning) a learning strategy in which the learner thinks
of a homophone (homophones) (the “key word”) in the native language
for the word he or she is trying to remember in the target language. The
learner then imagines a situation in which the homophone and the target
language word are interacting in some way. In remembering the target
word, the learner recalls the homophone and the situation in which it was
used. For example in learning the French word for “door” – porte– a
learner might think of a near homophone in English, such as “a porter”.
Then the learner thinks of a situation involving a porter – such as a porter
opening a door to carry in a bag. When the learner wants to remember the
French word for door, he or she thinks of the situation and the key word –
porter. This helps recall the French word – porte.
