Can orthodox Jewish recall every single word in the Torah?

They read the Torah everyday. I'm curious whether they can just recall word for word of the content.

I know a few people who can (I knew one person who had memorised the entire Tanakh as well as most of the Talmud (who sadly died a few years ago at the age of 96) HaRav Moshe Feinstein zs"l was well known for the fact that he had memorised the entirety of the Tanakh, Talmud and many other sources). I is not common, after all, it is a huge volume of work, but there are exceptional individuals that have the ability to memorise that kind of volume.

Me, I know various sections from memory, mainly because they are difficult to lain (lain= read the Torah in the service from a Torah scroll to a specific chant) and repetition in preparing those sections has enabled me to memorise them. Heh, but its far from the entire Torah!

Some can recall parts of the Torah, but many don't even know the translation, just how to pronounce the words. I have yet to meet someone who can recite the Torah, but I'm pretty sure that there's SOMEONE out there. You see the whiz kids who can recite hundreds of pi digits, right?

There are 79,847 words in the Torah (Pentateuch). You'd have to be gifted with an exceptional memory to be able to recall every last one. However, it is possible, and there are people (usually those who do the public Torah readings in synagogue on Shabbat) who can recite many of the verses from memory.

Only the scholars.

Not the women.
