NEOTWY (acronym formed by using the last letter of when (N), where (E) who (O) , what (T), how (W) and why (Y).) is an acronym to memorize questions.
NEPA stands for "Novelty, Experienced Pleasantness, Pre-existing Attitude" and is a tripartite model of affective evaluation that is used to describe how people evaluate new stimuli (novelty), how they experience pleasure or displeasure in response to the stimuli (experienced pleasantness), and how their prior knowledge or beliefs about the stimuli (pre-existing attitude) influences their affective evaluation.
Nepesh is a Hebrew word for "soul" that implies an inextricable involvement with a body, such that when the body dies the Nepesh (soul) also ceases to exist.
Nerve refers to a bundle of fibres that uses electrical and chemical signals to transmit motor and sensory information from one body part to another.
