You got it right on the flashcard. You even had a crack at saying it out loud a few times. Two weeks later, you&rsquo;re standing in front of someone and the word is gone.

Like you never learnt it.</p> <p>But the word your landlord used when he called about the busted pipe — the one you didn&rsquo;t understand and had to look up in a panic while water dripped onto your kitchen floor — that word you remember perfectly. You didn&rsquo;t study it. You didn&rsquo;t repeat it ten times. You lived it.</p>
