Precocious
<pre-koh-shish>
smart; gifted; bright;
being young and having the intelligence of someone who is mature.
The precocious child beat all the adults at chess.
Memory trick:
precocious reminds of precious.
someone who is young is precious.
At work:
You must have been a precocious child. Your programing skills are amazing for someone so young.
