remembering..

the latin root 're-' means 'again, anew, or back' according to everyone that knows anything decent about the english language. so, to the word, 'remember'. when one remembers something, they recall something from previous knowledge. they re-member it. but re-membering requires the fact that youh had to member it in the first place && that just doesn't make sense, as the word 'member' is not used like that at all.

basically.. remembering is the act of membering again. in this context, the action of membering would mean to learn. && to call upon that knowledge would be remembering, or learning again.

this word bothers me :]
