    I often have this problem but can perfectly remember a word in a different language that fits. Sometimes it sounds like I’m trying to be pretentious dropping foreign words while I’m just bad at brain.

      Hey, sometimes other languages have a more exact word for the concept you’re trying to convey. I completely get it.

      That said, the precision is sometimes lost on the audience.
