Here's another list of Spanish visuals. Every word has its pronunciation, meaning, and a little phrase to help you remember the word and its meaning.

A visual phrase is worthless without the right connections for your memory, the best way to remember what an orange is in Spanish is to get an orange, feel it's peel, smell the skin, listen to the sound when you cut through the peel, feel the resistance give way as the knife penetrates, take in that bright, vibrant, orange color of the flesh, taste the sweet tangy juices, smell the juices, feel rippled, slippery skin all the while connecting the essence of an orange to how Spanish expresses it: naranja.

The worst way is to memorize a rhyme connecting a pun on the color orange to the fruit orange. Three unrelated steps: reading a rhyme (something processed in a totally different part of the brain,) the color orange, and then an actual orange. It might work to get an "A" on a test, but you will have a stutter when you are in Mexico.

Used correctly a visual phrase is somewhere in between the two extremes of true understanding and rote memorization. With enough practice, especially in an immersion environment, the brain will make the direct connection to naranja circumventing the visual phrase, but never like our first language.

The correct way, or more awkwardly the most correct way, to use visualization is to incorporate as much of the essence of the thing being memorized into as many senses in the most ridiculous way possible.

Abajo below (relate it to baja which relates to Baja California, also called Lower California)

Afietarse to shave oneself (imagine shaving your arse/ass sitting in a Fiat car)

Alcoba bedroom (imagine a deadly cobra crawling across your bedroom floor)

Armario closet (you find out a secret closet full of guns and swords and the words, armory, inscribed on its doors)

Azul blue (relates to an old English word for sky, azure)

Bailar to dance (ever heard Enrique's famous number, Bailamos?)

Caballero gentleman (a yellow cab with a gentleman inside)

Caber to fit, to make room (imagine pushing the people inside a cab to make room for some fresh air)

Capillarse to brush oneself (imagine brushing your arse with a caterpillar)

Correr to run (picture a news correspondent running behind Paris Hilton when she is arrested for drunk driving)

Creer to believe, to think (do you really believe when they show those weird creatures on Animal Planet?)

I am sure you'll retain these Spanish words for a lifetime without any need for senseless recitations.
