Sequence modeling requires both compositional reasoning and local static knowledge retrieval, yet standard Transformers handle both through dense computation. Engram partially decouples retrieval from the backbone, but its token-based keys remain tied to text tokenization and hash compression. We propose Lngram, a latent-space conditional memory module that learns discrete symbols directly from hidden states and performs N-gram lookup over these symbols. This design removes the dependence on tokenizer IDs and naturally extends to non-text modalities. In our evaluated settings, Lngram outperforms Transformer and Engram baselines, consistently reduces perplexity in long-context language modeling, and effectively injects domain knowledge when added post hoc to pretrained models. Joint training with the backbone further surpasses full fine-tuning, while experiments on vision-language and vision-language-action tasks show overall gains. Analyses with LogitLens and CKA suggest that Lngram enables prediction-relevant information to emerge earlier, increasing effective depth with limited inference and memory overhead.
