Cute and funny mnemonics (1–10)
1103pupil
Among mnemonic number puns where you usually read each digit in sequence, this one stands out because it’s read in a 1-2-1 grouping.
Thinking in that pattern also suggests a variation where the middle “10” is read as “to.” Numerical mnemonics are fun and easy to remember, aren’t they? Try incorporating your favorite ones into license plates, PIN codes, or phone numbers.
9603croissant
A wordplay made from four-digit numbers usually represents a four-letter word.
So I’d like to introduce a rare one that represents a word with more than four letters: “9603.” This is read as “croissant.” Six letters is on the longer side for number-based wordplay.
The unusual reading could make it fun as a quiz, too.
8341kind; gentle; tender
What a wonderful word “kindness” is.
When it comes to traits that make someone attractive to the opposite sex, “kind” is always near the top, isn’t it? By using this mnemonic, you’ll surely find more opportunities to think about kindness.
And you’ll try to become a kind person.
Surely.
Those actions will improve your luck.
Try incorporating this mnemonic into something in your life and give it a go.
And I’d love to hear about the results.
Cute and funny mnemonics (11–20)
5628Goronyā
Don’t onomatopoeic words feel kind of cute? Animal sound onomatopoeia in particular evokes stylized animals and soothes the listener.
With that in mind, let me introduce “5628.” This is a numerical wordplay read as “goro-nyā,” combining the purring and meowing of a cat at the same time, which gives an even more adorable impression.
2525smile
There’s a lucky number wordplay, “2525.” Here, 2 is read as “ni” and 5 as “ko,” so together it becomes “nikoniko.” Nikoniko is a mimetic word that describes a smiling face, so it gives off a fortunate, cheerful feeling.
In fact, “2525” is especially popular as a car license plate number.
Keep it in mind when you want to bring a bit of luck.
5989confession
For those who want to confess their feelings to someone they like but can’t quite find the courage, there’s a fun number pun: “5989.” It’s read as kokuhaku, which means “confession.” You could use it when sending your feelings via LINE or a message, or even set it as a password as a charm for a successful confession.
It can also be combined with other love-related number puns, like ones for ‘first love.’
9483sneeze
There’s a slightly tricky number pun: 9483.
これは「kushami」と読み、「くしゃみ（sneeze）」を意味します。数合わせのダジャレで小さい音、つまり拗音の「ゃ」が含まれるのは珍しいです。
One way to remember it is to first take the initial sounds of the number readings to get “kushiyami,” then convert it to “kushami.” If you turn it into a riddle, you could also write the 8 smaller to hint at the small “ya.”
