Rote memorisation; memorising something word for word without necessarily understanding it.

A noun and suru verb combining 丸 (whole/entirely) with 暗記 (memorisation). Describes learning by committing information to memory exactly as-is, often without deep comprehension. Can carry a slightly negative connotation suggesting shallow learning, though it is sometimes valued for foundational knowledge like multiplication tables or historical dates. Common in discussions about education and study methods.
