ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Mémoire

Mémoire is like a big book where you keep all the memories of things that have happened to you in your life. When you do something, see something, or experience something, your brain stores that memory in your mémoire.

Just like when you read a storybook and remember what happened in the story, your brain can remember what happened to you in your life. And the more you remember things, the bigger your mémoire gets.

Sometimes when you can't remember something, it's like the book of your mémoire has lost that page or it's not in the right order anymore. This can happen when you don't pay attention to things or when you don't try to remember them.

But the good news is that you can improve your mémoire by practicing and using it often. You can also write things down or take pictures to help you remember them better. So, always try to pay attention to what's happening around you and keep adding memories to your mémoire book!
