When you name benzene derivatives with 2 substituents, you'll often use ortho-, meta-, para- prefixes. This is how I remember them.

ortho- refers to a benzene ring with substituents in the 1 and 2 position, but it also means mouth.

meta- refers to a benzene ring with substituents in the 1 and 3 position. You can find the letter M in the structure.

para- refers to a benzene ring with substituents in the 1 and 3 position. The structure resembles a paraglider.
