When I know a word in a foreign language, I'm usually able to recall when/where/why I learned it.
I have the recollection that I've known the French verb "violer", "to rape", for years. I don't know why I learned that. It seems like I'd have some reason to learn it.
Maybe it was so I could write my alliterative quips. J'ai violé le voleur en violet!
(I raped the thief who was wearing purple.)
