Gabe was essentially fluent in French in elementary school when he lived in Canada, but then moved away until he got a job offer
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

This is an example of recall.

Explanation:

Recalling is the action of bringing information back from the long-term memory, which has been previously stored.

Once information is stored in this type of memory, it won't be forgotten with ease and can be accessible by cues, for example.

Since Gabe was still in elementary school when he learnt French, it was easier for him to retain this information. Now, once he heads to Paris and listens to French again, it is easier for him to access the previously learnt information since the language itself provided him with the cues he needed to do so.
