Why Sensonym
Flashcards fade. Chatbots can't move you. Gamified apps measure streaks, not memory.
Sen·so·nym
/ˈsɛnsoʊnɪm/
noun
A revolutionary language learning method where physical senses create permanent word associations
The phenomenon of remembering vocabulary through embodied experiences rather than rote memorization
Etymology
Portmanteau of sensor (Latin sensus "to feel") + synonym (Greek syn "together" + onyma "name")
Examples
"After using Sensonym, I can't forget 'adelante' because my body remembers tilting forward."
"The Sensonym method uses phone sensors to create unforgettable vocabulary anchors."

Why It Works
The only language app that uses your body and surroundings to create permanent word memories
When you tilt forward to navigate through darkness and learn “adelante”, your motor cortex encodes the word alongside the physical memory
Embodied Cognition
Physical movements create stronger neural pathways than passive reading
Neuroscience research
Narrative Transportation
Story immersion activates emotional memory centers in the brain
Cognitive psychology
Multi-Sensory Encoding
Using multiple senses simultaneously creates redundant memory traces
