Memory anchors

Small words set limits

Quantifiers often determine the answer.

Some does not mean all

Existence does not establish universality.

Usually allows exceptions

Frequency below always is not absolute.

Only points backward

Only A are B means being B requires A.

Degree must match

More likely is not certain.

Checkpoint rule

Do the check-up only after you can summarize each concept in one sentence and identify one dangerous pitfall from memory.
