Mnemonic

A mnemonic is a short, deliberately ridiculous scene, built to be hard to forget. Who appears in it and where it takes place are how the pronunciation is stored; the objects in it stand for the parts the character is written with. That is the Marilyn Method, and the comic below is the same scene, drawn.

Mnemonic symbol: 出 tilted 90 degrees looks like “EE”. “EE” is an abbreviation for “emergency exit”. In front of the space station (Ø1) Chantal Chicken (chu) plugged her thornbush (屮) into a receptacle (凵), but it short circuited and immediately caught fire. Chantal has no option but to use the emergency exit (出) she came out of to go back into the space station.

How to pronounce 出

MandarinBanana teaches pronunciation with the Marilyn Method: every Pinyin syllable is one initial plus one final, the initial becomes a person, an animal or a deity, and the final becomes a place in your memory palace — with the tone deciding which part of that place the scene happens in. Remember the little story below for each half and the whole syllable comes back with them.

= chu initial

Chu is for Chantal Chicken.

出 character breakdown

Chinese characters are built out of smaller characters. Each component carries a mnemonic symbol - one concrete object that stands in for it - and a mnemonic story hands those objects to the person and the place that stand for the pronunciation. Learn a component once and every character that reuses it gets easier.
