Sometimes you get stuck in the middle of a conversation: 有时候话讲到一半就突然卡住了
It might be because you forgot what you want to say next: 可能是你忘了接下去要说啥
Or it might be because you’re looking for the proper word or expression to use: 也有可能你一下子找不着词了

When you use this phrase, you're also not expecting an answer, but asking yourself instead: 说这句话通常不是真的在提问, 而是在给自己时间过渡

"I forgot" is in the same category as “What am I trying to say?”: “I forgot”跟“What am I trying to say?”一样,都不是最佳的填充对话空白的方式" R$ W4 x+ A7 m) ^0 P1 f

This is a very good alternative of “I forgot”: 这个听起来比“I forgot”好多了
# P9 k( j! B6 r9 x: j8 S也可以说:

If something slipped your mind, you most likely forgot about it or forgot to do it: 这个词组表示把某件事给忘了,并不是说脑子卡壳一下子想不起来! d: |0 d8 f7 L$ X: @4 |
“It’s Father’s Day? It completely slipped my mind”: 今天是父亲节? 我彻底给忘了9 @. P C/ V- r5 C- Y
