The English name is not an ordinary noun built like teacher or baker. It is a tiny sentence — “do not forget me” — copied piece by piece from an older French name (ne m'oubliez mie) or the German name Vergissmeinnicht. That is why it is written with hyphens.

The English name這個英文名字 is not不是 built like teacher or baker像 teacher、baker 那樣構成 an ordinary noun的普通名詞。 It它 is a tiny sentence是一個小小的句子——“do not forget me”「不要忘記我」——from an older French name (ne m'oubliez mie)從較古的法文名（ne m'oubliez mie） or the German name Vergissmeinnicht或德文名 Vergissmeinnicht，copied piece by piece一塊一塊照抄過來。 That is why這就是為什麼 it它 is written with hyphens寫的時候帶連字號。

The old idea is that you give someone the flower so they will remember you; in ordinary talk now it is almost always just the plant, though people sometimes use the name, half-joking, for a small gift that says “think of me.” It is not a verb. You do not “forget-me-not” someone.

The old idea is老派的想法是：you你 give someone送人 the flower這種花，so they will remember you好讓對方記得你；now現在 in ordinary talk日常說話時 it它 almost always幾乎都 is just the plant只是指這種植物，though不過 people人們 sometimes偶爾 half-joking半開玩笑地 use the name用這個名字，for指 that says “think of me”一份說著「想著我」 a small gift的小禮物。 It它 is not a verb不是動詞。 You你 do not不會 “forget-me-not” someone去「勿忘我」某個人。
