记忆方法
将“forget”记忆为“for + get”，想象你“for”（为了）从某个地方“get”（取）走了一样东西，但是忘记了在哪里“get”（取）的，因此现在“for”（为了）要“get”（取）回来，但“for”（为了）得“get”（取）是要“forget”（忘记）的。这种“忘记”就是“forget”这个单词的意思。

英语词源
- forget
-
forget: [OE] From a formal point of view, forget is exactly what it seems – a combination of for and get. However, this is not the modern English preposition for, but a prefix that in former times was a live building block of the language, denoting negation or exclusion. So here, forget’s Germanic ancestor *fergetan meant literally ‘not get’, hence ‘lose one’s hold on’ and metaphorically ‘lose one’s memory of’.
=> get - forget (v.)
- Old English forgietan "lose the power of recalling to the mind; fail to remember; neglect inadvertently," from for-, used here probably with privative force, "away, amiss, opposite" + gietan "to grasp" (see get). To "un-get," hence "to lose" from the mind. A common Germanic construction (compare Old Saxon fargetan, Old Frisian forjeta, Dutch vergeten, Old High German firgezzan, German vergessen "to forget"). The physical sense would be "to lose (one's) grip on," but that is not recorded in any historical Germanic language. Figurative sense of "lose care for" is from late 13c. Related: Forgetting; forgot; forgotten.
