Significado
To memorize something perfectly, so it can be recited.
Contexto cultural
Reciting poems (Gedichte aufsagen) is a traditional part of German education. Students often learn works by Schiller or Goethe 'auswendig'. In the 'Land of Music', performing 'auswendig' is seen as a sign of true mastery and emotional connection to the piece. The term 'Bulimie-Lernen' is a common critique of the modern school system, where students memorize facts just for the test.
Use 'kennen' for results
If you already know it, say 'Ich kenne es auswendig'. If you are still working on it, use 'lernen'.
No 'Herz'!
Never say 'bei Herz' or 'mit Herz'. It sounds very strange to Germans.
