lying down to go to sleep i was like "speaking of 'amnesia' that's such a short word between surely the prefix a- and suffix of -ia, potentially the whole -esia...." but then it was like omg [mn] as, surely, memory? it's Just like "mnemonics" fr....then i was wondering like omg is "amnesty" "we will forget you did that" (yes)....wondering whether condemn/damn is related (apparently not) and why it's not "rememnering"...."remnembering"....and that seems to be because the PIE root of [remember, memory, etc] is apparently a "(s?)mer" which is directly about remembering versus the PIE root of the mn words being "men" which is about [to think] with plenty of derivatives about remembering, and more words listed as Related than in the [(s)mer] / memo words list
#learning there's ''amnemonic'' meaning exactly what it sounds like. or at least meaning [re: amnesia]#whilest going ''greek 'memnon' refers to thinking? aga?'' where apparently yes but it also means Resolute like re: regular memnon#but aga is another intensifier & the [resolution / steadfast] seems to shake out as Extremely Thinking#which really i'd think might mean Pensive / Considerate even indecisive for it but instead it's surely abt the intensity of thinking not th#amount of it you're doing. waking up like TODAY I WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS at 9000db. extremely thinking that#meanwhile Pointing at the 8 bit big band live premiere ft. will roland lyrics like whoa anamnesises! i Know that's related (it is)#and impressive as in all of it to not trip over. anamnesis mnemonic#amnesia#remnemner daniel....some things mustn't be forgotten....#getting the game ending with The Shadow Amnesty
