Rhythm is a very important part of how we remember. If we use rhythm when we are learning something, it’s much, much easier to remember. Our brains tend to store rhythm, so you can say that rhythm in itself is a learning method. Also, rhythm activates motion, and the senses, which also helps memory. Little stories with rhymes are fun and interesting, which is why children like to learn with nursery rhymes. I heard a fun little on in Chinese the other day, called 小老鼠上灯台 and I’ll read it to you.
(Nursery Rhyme)
You can hear the rhyming and the interesting little story inside. As a child, I learned many nursery rhymes as well, and I can remember them to this day, and let me chare an example. It’s called Three Blind Mice.
Three blind mice. Three blind mice.
See how they run. See how they run.
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Have you ever see such a thing in your life,
As three blind mice?
Folk songs and rhymes for adults also make use of rhythm to help people remember things. My Dad taught me one as a child, and I still remember it to this day. It’s called One Fine Day.
One fine day, in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight,
Two blind men to see fair play,
Two dumb men to shout ‘hooray,’
A paralysed donkey came galloping by,
And kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him over a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all.
Every society has many example like this, which shows that for thousands of years, people have used rhythm to help with both memory and communication. And this is why Kung-Fu English uses rhythm to help our learners get the core of the English language stuck in their heads.
