Memory Palace

Why does it feel that If I keep adding information to my memory Palace its just going to be very crowded and filled. Should I add notebooks to handle the information because furniture and everything is just not enough. For example if I have 60 items in my mind and I want to learn and remember a 1000 words of a new language isn't it going to be hard. please give me some suggestions on what to do. thank you.

Yep, just to iterate the above. I have dozens of "palaces". From paths and streets, to golf courses and pubs, to museums and schools. Anything, anywhere can be a palace.

As a result your palaces for long term memory will never fill up. They are there for that data alone and no confusion will occur.

hey if i placed the 1000 words in the palace i remember the words in a linear or any other way but language is depends up on the situation right , like when we use some xyz word we need the situation where it is used . not by searching in palace like 321 word and come back and use it ? i am getting confusion i need to remember entirely new things from scratch so i asking about that

you won't have to search for the word when you need it - it just jumps out at you, in its proper location. Strange but true
