being multilingual doesn't help
i forgot the whole concept of what i forgot
It's so random, too. I'll forget the word in languages that I'm fluent in, but remember it in Japanese or French or something else that I only studied a little bit of.
I end up having to describe the concept I'm trying to recall and hope that whoever I'm talking to can put the pieces together to help me find what word I'm looking for. Brains are weird.
The point isn't to be multilingual, though. It's to lie about being multilingual because you forgot a word in the only language you speak.
