Visual Association
Imagine a bishop wearing a tall, pointed hat (mitre) while cutting wood at an angle. The unusual combination of the religious figure and carpentry makes the image memorable.
Word Splitting
Break 'mitre' into 'mi' (me in Spanish) and 'tre' (sounds like 'tree'). Picture yourself (mi) nailing two pieces of a tree together at an angle to form a mitre joint.
