State

The phonological loop is the working memory component that holds and rehearses verbal and acoustic information.

Show

Silently repeating a shopping list uses the phonological loop while the visual sketchpad stays free.

Watch for

The loop is limited by how long the material takes to say. Longer words fill it faster than shorter ones.
