As it is, it was, as it is, always it will be. (always = os; play on words)
PAST: As it -is, it was,
PRESENT: -as it is,
FUTURE: -os it will be.
Tell me what you think, or if you have your own devices for remembering these.
Ĝereto.

Ne estu tiel kruela kun la knabo Hebda! he´s got ilusion making rules...
But for the correlatives he will need Hammurabi´s Code at least

hebda999:No offense taken. It is not that hard to remember, I am just starting. In my head when I was first learning the tenses I kept saying: is was, as is, os will. I just extended it to become a full phrase. I actually know them now without having to think of the phrase, but thought it was a clever mnemonic device. I was wondering if anyone had their own mnemonic devices for remembering things in Esperanto.thirddaykid:...Kill me, man. They are only six letters! Such a big problem to remember that?

thirddaykid: I was wondering if anyone had their own mnemonic devices for remembering things in Esperanto.as, is, os, the first always for the present--a-,
the others occupate the same places i-o than (a-e-i-o-u), i pass, o future. l-e-r-n-u, u the last for imperative: a-e-i-o-u
they are small memory rules but can be useful, or funny at least.
In the correlatives you have -am for time ( pronounce ta(i)m)
-om, for quantity, number, you could use at-om example, kiom da mono havas vi?, kiom-a horo estas?

cFlat7:I have avoided memory devices involving English words in them as I have wanted to ultimately speak and think in Esperanto with as little English 'baggage' as possible.On a related note, the only mnemonic device I've ever learned was "sohcahtoa" for "sine: opposite/hypotenuse, cosine: adjacent/hypotenuse, tangent: opposite/adjacent" -- my math teacher loved that phrase and drilled it into our heads. Even today it flashes up when I deal with any trigonometry -- and I hate it. It firmly compounded the idea that mnemonics are just extra things to memorize and are ultimately counterproductive when compared with simply memorizing the thing.
