[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks, op for posting and responders. I’m 51 and can completely blank on words. I have to google “things you put into a lock to open it”. It’s like I know the word exists but I have no idea what it is. I’m perimenopausal and have long covid issues, but of course my focus goes to Alzheimer’s. This thread was reassuring. [/quote] For a word as commonly used as "key," that's concerning. (And even MORE concerned if you had keys in your hand at the time but were not able to get the word for them). But long COVID itself would more than explain that. My spouse has it and was told by the PT who referred to the speech therapist that it's treated more or less the way traumatic brain injury is, because it has many of the same effects. If that is just an example of how you circumlocute to get to a word that is actually less regularly used, or a less common object than "key," I'd say it's completely normal.[/quote]
