I’m learning direction words in Polish (A1) so here’s how I learn them
po lewej stronie - on the left vs po prawej stronie - on the right
lewej starts with L/Le so it’s left. prawej sounds like prawda, so the truth, or it’s RIGHT
na dole - d for downstairs
na górze reminds me of góry (mountains) or “w górach” (in the mountains) upstairs or up in the mountains


I just write everything down. If I forget it in the next session, I repeat it again. The idea is that you eventually end up remembering them.
