Major System chart: all 100 pairs, 00 to 99

Every two-digit pair is two consonant sounds, and each one below has a word you can picture. These are the same 100 words the Memory Mill app drills, so what you learn here is what the app tests. Don't love a word? Any real word built from the same two sounds is a valid swap - the sounds are the system, the words are yours.

Major System chart: a 10 by 10 grid of every pair from 00 to 99, first digit down the side and second digit along the top, with one word for each pair - 00 SAUCE, 01 SEAT, through 99 PIPE.
First digit down the side, second along the top. Save it, print it, or read the same list as text below.
The ten sounds

Read the chart with these.

A digit keeps one family of consonant sounds for good. Vowels, W, H and Y carry no digit, so they're free filler. 52 is L then N, and LION is the word that fell out - the same chain the First Lesson walks you through.

Where this goes

A word for every pair is only half of it.

A long number is a row of these words in order, and order is what the memory palace keeps. The Major System guide explains how the pairs are built, and the 90-second benchmark shows you why any of this matters.
