Looking forward to your new videos on advanced memory (palace) techniques too!

[@Wulfric1107]

Thanks! And yes please, more about learning languages would be awesome!

[@Kayfc300]

I'd love to see a video on language learning!

[@gecko7167]

I love this series so much I feel like your tips are trustworthy and useful. Please also make videos on language learning. !! Thank you

[@17puja24]

Plz make a vdo how u remebered ikea catalogue with page no"s

[@alexios6485]

I just watched you on Netflix and when i searched memory palace here on KZbin your video was on the suggestion. Cool vid by the way.

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

I love using the 3-D tours that are available online for famous places. I have huge memory palaces in the Louvre museum, and the forbidden city in China. 🥰

[@hilly2387]

that's a great idea! is it hard to remember every location though since you don't often visit?

[@TheBuslaefff]

Thank you for video. I started to learn about memory when as Buddhist monk I needed to memorize ceremony speech on Pali language. Thank you again!

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

Yeah! I’m in a Daoist monastery right now using them to memorize the Chinese chanting. 💙☯️🙏

[@YogaBlissDance]

Thanks for being so honest, I do have trouble finding folks using it for grammar and your explanation MADE SO MUCH SENSE in terms of learn structure and just repeat vs memory palace...i finished your video.

[@noodlery7034]

Just a summary to be used later which I thought I should share. 1. Long term = Designate specific places 2. Grammar is more about muscle memory 3. Use memory palaces for order of things (names, numbers, words, etc) 4. Experiment with the size of your palaces 5. Be careful when overwriting memory palaces 6. Memory palaces shouldn't be used for everything. 7. Many images are boring to others. (Choose images that are meaningful to you)

[@cris-sc2rm]

What kind of technique do you use when you are learning a new subject? How is your learning process? Long videos are fine, don’t worry about It!

[@celinedeluca121]

I can't believe I just saw "mdr" in your video 😂😂😂 Completely unexpected ! I d totally love to see a video about more advanced memory palace technique. Its been a few times I m looking for that kind of content... This video is very nice and clear, I sometimes wonder if I use the memory palace wrong when I find it useless in some situations but you just explained that maybe it is because its not adapted. Thanks!

[@environven3614]

I like your speaking style ,natural oh natural OMG again natural...

[@rohangupta8870]

Well, what memory techniques can i use in physics and maths ? I know these are a little practical subjects and based on implementation but there are certain things you need to remember like some of the formulas (like in coordinate geometry distance between two points or formulas of trigonometry various equation of tangents and normals etc) I hope you will help me with that I am already extremely grateful you for introducing me to world of memory, i got introduced when i saw you in steve harvey's show on youtube So, thanks a lot

[@fitnessabdul6811]

Don't you get a Formula booklet?

[@mahuuti]

A very great and helpful Video 😊👌 Thank you for making it. I would love to see and watch a video about learning languages. 💛💛💛

[@MichaelGarcia-hw7yh]

Yanja be throwing shade by the end. Lol

[@joelf3080]

Question would you recommend using the memory palace for spelling?

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

I do like to reuse certain memory palaces for certain things, like my kitchen for shopping lists. …But I wouldn’t do that for memorizing things like texts or permanent information. 💙😁🌲

[@yashade50]

Really helpful video. Thank you

[@brunofellite8969]

Yänjaa is awesome, definitely

[@wulymammoth]

How did you employ memory techniques for studying algorithms in programming? Or concepts in programming?

[@wulymammoth]

RaniaIsAwesome you assume that memory and understanding are mutually exclusive. They’re not. For example, DFS and BFS traversals in a graph represented in a matrix. I can bang out that code in my sleep, so all I need to think about is adapting it to a problem when I recognize that I can apply it to some problem. Like I can derive Dijkstra, but because I don’t use it often enough, it’s a bit laborious to think through it and I would stumble through the implementation even if I understand it. If I could have it at the ready using memory techniques to burn them in like my other templates, it’d be useful. Not having to worry about writing the code is only half the battle if we’re talking about this in the context of technical interviews. The algorithm design is the other part. But you still have to have studied and internalized them in one fashion or another to be able to recall and adapt it to a problem

[@sallylauper8222]

我需要造成一个记忆樹屋, 来记得住中文的214部首。 我在那里可以买一些木料和钉子？ 谢谢你的合作！

[@you2449]

What do I do if my memory Palace burned down? And I lost everything b4 I could get it all out!!?

[@ionutfurnea5813]

Hahaha, I watched till the end! 😄

[@linaabuzayyad2853]

thank you that's very helpful... can you please make a video on how to memorize a book word by word with the pages numbers?

[@Miloeren12]

Don’t recommend

[@richardchantra9313]

Hi Yanjaa, love your videos! How did you remember all those audience member faces on Steve Harvey's show? Also what about those random images, how do you remember all the fine details especially under pressure and limited time?

[@francismansal7109]

hi Yanjaa, i am one of your subcribers and i am interested in memory techniques for language learning. Thanks and hoping to hear from you. God bless

[@quintoncarroll4828]

Memory palace vs numeric peg system...which is better?

[@arastookaki8332]

It was nice. Tnx❤

[@studygamer2507]

You speak french so good

[@justinn9342]

thankyou!!

[@GrantNolan.]

I can watch long videos just fine

[@romilflores8869]

LOVE yoUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU !!!!!! ninjaaaaaaaaaaa

[@MrPishy12321]

Lol. Like your style, great job!

[@andrei.a1432]

I really want to learn a language and i need your advices !!! 😇

[@abhigo7788]

Yayyy very helpful

[@iceberg7995]

I also like videos that are 40min long lol I use memory palaces for accuracy in short-term things, but repetition gives me a greater result for long-term recollection

[@Yanjaa]

Nicely done! You figured it out :)

Yep

[@Dev-dg1ti]

8:44 which are they??...they are for memoryy?

[@StephenAndrichuk]

As if I would take advice from someone who failed a highschool class... jk I failed physics. Good advice all around in this video. Thanks

[@anikethaldankar4642]

NUMBERED MEMORY PALACE PLZZZZZ

[@farisalzahrani5447]

I use it to review the topic in order while my ayes close and try to get deep understanding about it.

[@jeremyturner5]

Please talk about language learning Spanish

[@Lilalila-vs5ru]

I want to save texts, do I use memory ???

[@mardinikhalil5592]

Is there an easy way how can I remember long texts?

[@vasqueznat6036]

nice

[@JS-mn5ro]

Eres hermosa.

[@ArnoldPranks]

4:55 y'all already know..that would be MONGOLIA :)

[@allthingssummary9958]

Can you explain how to get familiar with a new place you would like to turn into a memory palace?

[@stevenking9987]

i real need skill . please teach us.

[@williambudd2850]

Memory palaces are for remembering a list of things, not a meaning for a word.

[@ahard-workinghumanbeing7680]

I am basically disappointed in myself for doing bad in the exam. I did not learn enough. I am just distracted by actually anything to make me not learning.

[@horacebury]

Please do a vlog on creating imagery for grammar. 👍😁

[@Pakodi620]

Hi yanjaa , i like you

[@johnpachkoski4637]

Yeah it doesnt even sound like it makes sense to use a memory palace to secure a procedural/muscle memory learned task rather than to secure your control over abstract information you need to remember via repeating a memory palace of it.

[@boriscuduco6398]

Anyone here is from the forum of the art of memory or am I the only one?

[@myowndrummer3372]

i am

[@tiagolopes2679]

s2

[@iceberg7995]

I was the 420th like and I'm from Canada... How ironic

[@Yanjaa]

Wait why

[@williambudd2850]

When learning a language you have to learn the meaning of thousands of words of vocabulary. So if you use a memory palace, you will need one with thousands of locations. That is just not goinng to work out.

[@Alex-rt3po]

It’s only a 10 minute long video if you don’t put it on 2x speed

[@williambudd2850]

Muscle memory for learning grammar??? This girl doesn’t know what she is talking about. More on.

[@Lilalila-vs5ru]

I want to save texts, do I use memory ???
