Generate the answer for a given question. The question requires common knowledge of English. Make sure that the answer is in detail, long, consistent with the context, and requires general knowledge of English. To be less repetitive, please vary your language for each question. Give a proper explanation to answer, and if necessary, provide the definition of various terms. And conclude your answer if it's long. If you have used other resources (e.g., Merriam Webster's.) to answer the question, include citations in your answer. You don't need to paraphrase the context of your resources, but make sure that your answer is consistent and complete.
Q: Is the following correct, or is there more to it? 'I forgot his name' I knew his name, but I forgot it. 'I forget his name' I keep forgetting his name. Where using 'forget' basically means that you tried to remember this information before as well, but you couldn't then either.
A: 
I forgot his name means that at some time past, I no longer remembered his name, but leaves open whether I can currently remember it. I forget his name can be construed in a couple of different ways: I forgot his name and I still can't remember it (but I hope you know who I'm talking about even so). I keep on forgetting his name. Both are valid; the context might disambiguate between the two.
