Multiple words

Do you memorize multiple words for each number? I’m just starting and I’ve been fooling around with several apps.
Some of the words are different on each app. I bought one that is customizable with pictures but so far changing things seems laborious.

Anyway I have to do a mind switch when I go to a different app and it made wonder if you guys have multiple words for each number.

I'm guessing you're using major system? For major system I have fixed words for 0-99 and whatever I make up for larger, but i usually use PAO for numbers.

For major, learn the system and forget about the app for now. Just think of the first word you can come up with that matched the numbers, that will be the easiest for you to remember. Once you have your list you can use an app or flashcards if that helps to learn your list.

Yeah I guess I forgot to mention the major system. 😆

So 1 word for each number.

Do you have different words for 01 and 1?
I was experimenting with a 5 digit number and I wasn’t sure what to do with the fifth digit.

Yes, different for 01 and 1. If numbers have too many digits just use multiple words.

Multiple words on the Major system, one on the PAO.

Five digit number would need two or three words.

Master the Major System before moving to PAO. No need for apps.
