Italian word

dimenticare

to forget

Looks like

to mention

to bring up a topic in conversation

⚠️ The trap

'Dimenticare' (to forget) looks and sounds nothing like 'to mention' to an Italian speaker, but English learners sometimes mishear it. These are completely unrelated.

To say "to bring up a topic in conversation" in Italian:

menzionare (for to mention)

"dimenticare" in English means:

to forget

Example

"Ho dimenticato le chiavi."

"I forgot the keys."
