• When We Use Remember and Remind

    Remember is when you think of a memory (a past experience).

    Examples :

    I remember the first time I ever swam in the ocean, when I was 5 years old.

    Do you remember what happened when Joe forgot to buy a present for his wife on her birthday?

    I don’t think he remembers that we met 30 years ago.

    Remember is also the opposite of "forget".
    You can use remember to talk about keeping something in your mind, for examples :

    Please remember to wash the dishes after you finish eating lunch.

    I was already at work when I suddenly remembered I had a dentist appointment at 9:30. I called the dentist and rescheduled it for the next day.

    I can’t remember her name. Is it Alice or Annie?


    Remind is when a person or thing makes you think about something.

    Examples :

    My mother reminded me to wash the dishes after I finished eating lunch.

    The secretary reminded Mr. Greene that he had a meeting at 4:30.

    Josh uses the calendar on his cell phone to remind him about important dates.

    Our shopping list reminds us what we need to buy at the supermarket.
