It's not a malfunction. It's a normal function. The brain can only hold so much stuff in temporary memory. Write stuff down if you really want to remember.

The brain can hold around 7-12 items (depending on the person) in temporary memory.
So, if you have too many things that you are thinking about, you bump one off the list.

Dementia but more likely a short attention span. What I would like to know is how you remembered how you spell the words you have written in the question you did ask?

You didn't forget it, you just never remembered it because your brain didn't think it was very important.
