Phonesia may refer to a) The affliction of dialing a phone number and forgetting whom you were calling just as they answer. b) Getting to the end of a list of options on a recorded helpline number, only to forget which option one wanted; forcing them to listen to them again, and in some cases having to redial the number.
Phonesia(電話失憶癥)可能指a)撥通某個電話號碼,等對方接電話時突然忘記你是在給誰打電話;b)按著機器應答幫助熱線的提示一直往下聽,結(jié)果忘記自己要做的操作是哪一個,然后不得不再把整個提示聽一遍,有時甚至還得重新?lián)芤槐闊峋€號碼。
For example:
I called my college teacher last night, then I experienced a terrible phonesia that I couldn’t remember her name. It was awful!
