Explanation: This is a compound verb formed from the prefix 'επι-' (epi-, meaning 'upon' or 'in addition') and the root 'λανθάνω' (lanthano, meaning 'to escape notice' or 'to be hidden'). Together, 'επιλανθάνομαι' means to forget, to neglect, or to be unmindful of something or someone. It implies an act of forgetting, often with the nuance of neglecting or no longer caring about something previously known or remembered. It is typically used with a genitive object (e.g., to forget *of* something).
