I had some problems deciphering that (could be because I'm not a 
native speaker, and have to *stop and think* what the last letter of a 
word might be)...<<<

No, just straight memorization.  
C= 2 over 3; N= 2 and 4 over 1 and 2.  You don't need to associate it with
words unless you want to.

Or \ = cross = 2 over 3; 
// = twist = 2/4 over 1/3; 
/ = right over left, single thread.
This would be better than using an X for either of them, since both stitches
produce Xs.  It's just which leg is on top that differs.

Therefore, torchon ground = CNpCN (or \ // p \ //); point ground = CNNN (\
// // //) (the 2-bobbin twists would be printed close together in a
book/article, not as far apart as in ASCII).  For us dyslexics, having the
sloped symbols would be really nice!  We just make our threads be that way,
no need to remember which is our right/left hand.
