# If one forgot the words "Shelo Chiser Bolamo Klum" he still fulfilled his obligation.<Ref>Ateret Paz Birkat Hailanot p. 159 writes that if one forgot the words "Shelo Chiser Bolamo Klum" he still fulfilled his obligation. He quotes the Shevet Hakehati OC 6:133 who explains that the Kesef Mishna Brachot ch. 1 holds that as long as one said the correct concept of the bracha even if he changed some of the text he fulfilled his obligation. As long as he said shem, malchut, and the idea of the bracha he fulfilled his obligation.</ref>
