The Major System (also called the phonetic number system, phonetic mnemonic system, or Herigone's mnemonic system) is a technique used to memorize numbers.The system works by converting numbers into consonant sounds, then into words by adding vowels. These steps are already done in this book and normally more than one word is available to encode each date before 2014. The system works on the principle that one (perhaps funny) word can be remembered much more easily than four meaningless digits.In this book the Major System (MS) is applied specifically for learning historical dates, however, can be used for learning any number.To give an example: the First Scottish Parliament is dated 1326 A.D.In this book you can find eight different words that encode that date according to the conversion table below; the eight words are: demonic dmnc1326demoniac dmnc1326dominica dmnc1326adamancy dmnc1326daimonic dmnc1326adamance dmnc1326daemonic dmnc1326histaminic stmnc1326It is much easier just to remember "The DEMONIAC first Scottish parliament" to never forget in which year happened!!The conversion table make corresponds to each number, one or more letters. Some letters (a, e, i, o, u, y, h) are not corresponding to any number so are jolly letters.1t, d2n3m4r5l6j, c7k, g, q8f, v, w9p, b0z, s, xUnassigneda, e, i, o, u,
