I am currently learning German. To remember words, I try to associate them with something. "where" in German "Wohin", pronounced approximately as "vagin", remembered as "where?" "in pizz". a "from where" - "woher". Then they will return to the place where they are, and they will return to the place where they are. Easily and logically remembered.
p.s Throw in what convulsions are now beating near the monitors of the Grammar Nazi from the German.
