What's the best way to learn a programming language and not forget it?

sometimes I find myself forgetting some tags, attributes, function names globals and the rest associated with the concerned programming languages. I know that this isn't good, sometimes I get agree if I have to always rely on Google to find answers to some of the things I don't seem to remember when the need arises. Is there a way to learn without forgetting ?

Well. It is true that practice will make you remember the things you use many times, but there will always be things you will forget. All programmers need a reference to refresh their mind many times. The more important is to understand the concepts of the programming language. How it works. The fundamentals. The building blocks. And these are the things you must practice again and again. But, you don't need to memorize all of the functions or methods of their library. You just need a reference book for that.

Try to make always some sort of program (even the most stupid) , or join a site with lots of challenges in that language, there are lots of them.

You should write down notes in a random note book or composition that is laying around.
