==Language recall==

So if I was learning a 2nd language and wanted to recall what I learned, I would need a strong Procedural memory correct? How would one improve his procedural memory?

:(I added a title to this question). It would be [[semantic memory]] that you're asking about, not procedural memory, I believe. As for improving, hard to say. My guess: learn. The more you learn, the easier it is to learn more, I think it's fair to say. There are also memory strategies one can learn, [[mnemonic|mnemonic device]]s like the [[method of loci]] that can help you improve recall by taking advantage of the way the brain works (i.e. associatively).

Line 11:

If recall what he learned would refer to how to make sounds than it would be procedural memory. For instance how to make the sound (TH) at first requires attention, but then may become proceduralized. accessing how to make the sound would be retrieval from procedural memory. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/67.99.175.226|67.99.175.226]] ([[User talk:67.99.175.226|talk]]) 00:09, 25 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

==Muscle memory merge==

Just thought I'd throw in my support of the vote to merge muscle memory into this article. [[User:Digfarenough|dig<i>far</i>enough]] ([[User talk:Digfarenough|talk]]) 22:16, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
