Is there anything that could help me memorise the argument order of the ln command?

I'll take anything from little helper phrases over shell extensions to replacements written in Rust. I only use the command occasionally, but I need a fool-proof solution. Do you have any tricks to get it right?

It’s the same as cp or mv. Source dest.

    Think of it like making a fake copy? Source file is first, symlink is second.
