That's how I learned most of them myself. I *always* think of the phrase
{chay' jura'} when I need to say "you(singular) do something to us", and
{pIpIH} always comes to mind for "we-you(singular)". I no longer remember
exactly *why* I know how to say "we've been expecting you", but it serves
its purpose as a mnemonic. And quite some time ago, during a discussion
of homemade dumplings or something, I decided that they would fill you up
all by themselves: {nIteb nIteb}. :-)
