Recall the ten Major-System pegs for 80–89 — the /f/–/v/ decade. Can you name all ten in order and picture a story that links them?
Every 80s peg starts with the /f/ or /v/ sound (8); the second sound is the unit digit (0–9), so 80 = v·s = vase, 81 = v·t = vet, and so on.
80 vase · 81 vet · 82 fan · 83 foam · 84 fairy · 85 fly · 86 fish · 87 fig · 88 fife · 89 vape
Picture story (follow the scenes):
A kind veterinarian holding a puppy beside a vase full of bright flowers.
An electric fan blowing a huge mountain of white foam bubbles.
A tiny glowing fairy riding on the back of a giant housefly.
A shimmering fish leaping over a ripe purple split fig.
Two hands playing a small wooden fife amid clouds of white vapor.
