Word origin
The word 'forget' originated from the Old English word 'forgietan', which means 'lose the power of calling to mind'. Over time, the word evolved to its current form in Middle English, influenced by Old Norse. Forgetting is a natural process of the human brain, as it discards information deemed irrelevant or unnecessary for survival. Psychologists have studied the mechanisms behind forgetting, such as decay theory and interference theory.
