When We Use Remember and Remind

Share it:
Remember is when you think of a memory (a past experience).

Examples :

I remember the first time I ever swam in the ocean, when I was 5 years old.

Do you remember what happened when Joe forgot to buy a present for his wife on her birthday?

I don’t think he remembers that we met 30 years ago.

Remember is also the opposite of "forget".
You can use remember to talk about keeping something in your mind, for examples :

Please remember to wash the dishes after you finish eating lunch.

I was already at work when I suddenly remembered I had a dentist appointment at 9:30. I called the dentist and rescheduled it for the next day.

I can’t remember her name. Is it Alice or Annie?


Remind is when a person or thing makes you think about something.

Examples :

My mother reminded me to wash the dishes after I finished eating lunch.

The secretary reminded Mr. Greene that he had a meeting at 4:30.

Josh uses the calendar on his cell phone to remind him about important dates.

Our shopping list reminds us what we need to buy at the supermarket.
