In neuroscience, ‘memory’ and ‘forgetting’ are regarded as the same concept. ‘Remember’ presupposes ‘forgetting,’ and ‘remembering’ can lead to ‘forgetting.’ Memory is generally categorized into ‘semantic memory’ and ‘autobiographical memory.’ We do not know when or how we learned that Stockholm is the capital of Sweden. This is referred to as semantic memory, which does not involve an attempt to remember. In contrast, autobiographical memory involves an effort to recall a fact that has been personally experienced. Both types of memory entail forgetting. Semantic memory omits the process of acquiring knowledge, while autobiographical memory strives not to forget. Studying entails the process of retaining or forgetting these two types of memory. When the distinction between them is unclear, we mistakenly presume that others have taken our thoughts and experiences. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Who can do detailed and specific shopping in an offline shopping mall like this? In fact, the electronic world ...
