คน ที่ เห็น บอก ว่า

In short

Why it looks that way

Literally "the person who saw says": according to an eyewitness. No separate word for eyewitness is kept — the Thai describes him by his deed

A word with a story stays in memory longer than one learned as a “spelling — translation” pair: memory holds on to meaning, not to a string.

In a live sentence

A single word almost never appears alone in conversation. A sentence shows where it fits and what stands next to it.

  According to an eyewitness, the rain was very heavy

How not to forget this word

Reading a word and remembering it are different jobs. A day later, little survives of a single reading — and that is not bad memory, that is how memory works.
