Semantic memory refers to our long-term memory for general world knowledge, facts, concepts, and ideas that are not tied to specific personal experiences. It allows us to store and retrieve information about the meanings of words, objects, people, and concepts, helping us understand the world around us and make sense of new experiences based on our prior knowledge.
One of the two parts that compose Declarative Memory. Sematic Memory stores factual information.
implicit memory
Implicit memory is not based on conscious recall of information but on implicit learning. Examples include procedural memory (skills and tasks) and emotional memory (associations between emotions and experiences). These memories are often unconscious but influence our behavior and responses.
Factual memory is the actual truth. This means you are recalling everything that actually happened instead of what you think may have happened.
Explicit Memory
The brain directs the conscious motor functions of the body, the primary sensory receive and process from our senses, speech and language, factual memory formation and short term memory. Also the regulation of many differing functional traits such as affection, emotion and behavior and motor learning.

Research on repression suggests that repressed memories of traumatic events can be forgotten or stored in the unconscious mind as a defense mechanism to protect the individual from emotional distress. When memories are repressed, they are kept out of conscious awareness, resulting in forgetting. This process allows people to cope with overwhelming experiences by temporarily blocking them from memory.
