Osteoporosis is a long word... so just breaks it down to:

Then, join four chunks into two parts:

Osteo + porosis

Understanding the meaning is also make easy this way:

Osteo- (prefix): Combining form meaning bone. From the Greek "osteon", bone.

porosis: a porous condition of bonesSomething that is porous has many small holes in it.

Egypt: how to spell

Egypt 

I find it hard to pronounce or remember the spelling of this word as I am troubled by the letter y.

In phonic, y is pronounced as i.

Hence, I always replace Egypt with Egipt mentally when I pronounce it. 

In writing, I remind myself to change y to i and Egipt is transcribed to Egypt.

This exercise helps me to remember Egypt as Egypt.

It is a roundabout way, yet the long way I took in my learning journey helps me to save a lot of time pondering how to unlock the spelling order of this word.

Enthusiasm

Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm.

Nothing great was ever achieved without it because it gives any challenge or any occupation, no matter how frightening or difficult, a new meaning.

Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it you can accomplish miracles.  

-- Og Mandino (1923-1996)
