remind
The German word "gemahnen" is a verb that means "to remind" or "to admonish". It is derived from the Middle High German "mānēn", which relates to the concept of invoking a memory or a warning. "Gemahnen" is often used in contexts where someone is prompted to recall an obligation or duty, and may carry a connotation of urgency or importance.
Similar words in German include "erinnern" (to remember), "mahnen" (to admonish), and "aufmerken" (to take note). The difference is that "gemahnen" typically conveys a stronger sense of warning or urging compared to a more neutral reminder.
