That word has the meaning " Vague. Not clear. The vague feeling you get especially before the start of the exam. It would seem as if you have forgotten everything and you don't remember that clearly". That word has somewhat the pronunciation of the word "glare" or "gare". What is that word?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know, but people who experience it have a glazed look.

Talking about examination, I will think of the word “scare”.

If you scare before the start of the exam then you may forget what you have studied and your memory becomes vague.

By the way, the pronunciation of “scare” is similar to “s + gare”.

Nevertheless, the word “scare” does not mean “vague” itself so I am not sure whether it is appropriate for your “word puzzle”.
Any more clue ?
