I knew a woman once with the nickname \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Sproidy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d–she was given this monicker because the letters on the dial of the phone could be used to spell that. I occasionally find myself using this trick in reverse when I need to invent a numeric passcode or the like–I pick a convenient word, and work out the numbers on a phone dial that correspond to it.<\/p>\n
There ought to be a name for words and numbers created using this trick, of using numbers to generate words, or vice-versa. Since these are generally used as an aide-memoire<\/i>, I kind of like \u00e2\u20ac\u0153mnumerimonic.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Another possibility might be \u00e2\u20ac\u0153numerinym,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d though that would only make sense for to words generated from numbers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
