This is great. I started hacking on something very similar (https://ezmonic.com) but you took it all the way with NLTK and finding noun phrases. Another great addition would be to find rhyming phrases if it's possible given a number. Maybe add some rules to the Mnemonic system so that certain parts of speech are ignored, so you can throw extra syllables in when needed by adding some adjectives or adverbs. I'm curious if the flexibility to create rhythmic rhymes would aid in memorization, or if the added phonemes would cancel out the benefit.

Great idea about finding or even generating rhyming phrases! If you clearly define the parts of speech used for encoding (probably nouns), I don't think it would cancel out the benefit.
