Try to keep it practical (like something that would be fairly doable, you just havent gotten around to it…yet)

There are apps that you can input text into and they can replace the characters in each word incrementally to help learn them. Wanna get into that

    If you cook, bake, brew, anything with food and drink.

    Common volume conversions: 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon, 4 tablespoons/2 fluid ounces in a quarter cup, 8 fluid ounces in a cup, 2 cups in a pint, 2 pints in a quart, 4 quarts in a gallon.

    Common weight conversions: 28 grams in an ounce, 16 ounces in a pound, 2 pounds and 3(ish) ounces in a kilo.

    And common volume to weight conversions based on ingredients you use. For me: 200 grams in a cup of sugar, 125 grams in a cup of AP flour, 6 grams in a tablespoon of cocoa powder.

    Makes it a lot easier to halve/double recipes, or use a scale for a volume written recipe.

      What a headache, as a non-American just reading this makes my frontal lobe hurt.

      Thank you but as the solar system as my witness that is such an absolutely terrible way to keep track of quantities
