the difference between 21 00:01:19.938 --> 00:01:23.280 remember and remind these two verbs are 22 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:24.688 always confused 23 00:01:24.688 --> 00:01:28.229 so they both talked about having a 24 00:01:28.229 --> 00:01:29.759 memory inside your head 25 00:01:29.759 --> 00:01:34.709 but remember specifically means to have 26 00:01:34.709 --> 00:01:38.610 and to keep a memory in your head like 27 00:01:38.610 --> 00:01:41.759 if you go out somewhere just remember to 28 00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:44.850 take your key keep that memory inside 29 00:01:44.850 --> 00:01:45.420 your head 30 00:01:45.420 --> 00:01:48.720 don't lose it and remind means that 31 00:01:48.720 --> 00:01:52.579 something or someone puts the memory 32 00:01:52.579 --> 00:01:56.640 into your head again

remember it gives me the memory of 36 00:02:07.350 --> 00:02:12.180 something it reminds me of the thing I 37 00:02:12.180 --> 00:02:13.830 remember your face 38 00:02:13.830 --> 00:02:16.290 listen to this song alright so if you 39 00:02:16.290 --> 00:02:19.980 are like me then every time you meet 40 00:02:19.980 --> 00:02:20.880 someone new 41 00:02:20.880 --> 00:02:23.550 this happens hello

00:02:36.570 --> 00:02:40.320 you've forgot we ask it like this sorry 49 00:02:40.320 --> 00:02:41.970 what was your name again 50 00:02:41.970 --> 00:02:45.600 I know it's still your name now 51 00:02:45.600 --> 00:02:49.260 but the verb we make it past because we 52 00:02:49.260 --> 00:02:53.520 forgot and you told me in the past so 53 00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.120 and also notice when we ask you to 54 00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.600 repeat something we will add again like 55 00:03:00.600 --> 00:03:03.209 in these examples sorry my memory is 56 00:03:03.209 --> 00:03:06.209 terrible what

that verb change it to the past tense 60 00:03:14.310 --> 00:03:17.850 and add again because you're asking them 61 00:03:17.850 --> 00:03:20.430 to repeat themselves what's the next 62 00:03:20.430 --> 00:03:22.040 thing 63 00:03:22.040 --> 00:03:25.739 sorry I lost my train of thought you 64 00:03:25.739 --> 00:03:28.350 know those times when you have a thought 65 00:03:28.350 --> 00:03:31.590 and then you have another thought but 66 00:03:31.590 --> 00:03:33.239 then you lose it and you forget 67 00:03:33.239 --> 00:03:36.450 everything in those times we say that 68 00:03:36.450 --> 00:03:39.810 you lose your train of thought so right 69 00:03:39.810 --> 00:03:41.790 now I just lost my train of thought 70 00:03:41.790 --> 00:03:45.900 sorry when you forget something very 71
