One of the effective ways to memorize foreign words is v________ , in which learners associate new words with the keywords that have similar sounds in their native language.

which one is correct word for blank? visulization or visualizing. One of my

friends told me visualization is right. but visualizing is a little bit

awkward. If I put visualizing on the blank, is it wrong grammatically?

Can you tell me why if you can.

- always thanks for your answer.

I think it's OK. It would be a gerund.

I prefer "visualization." I don't think the grammar is wrong when you use "visualizing" but I feel like it could use an object then.
