One of the first skills that any player of NetHack needs to know is how to use the inventory.

Press [i] to see your inventory, which is a list of all objects that you carry.

Carrying too many items makes you burdened or worse. Also, you are limited to 52 objects (corresponding to 26 uppercase and 26 lowercase inventory letters), even if you are strong or the objects all have low weight. If you find a bag, then you can hold more items.

The fixinv option, which by default is on, causes you to remember the inventory letter of an object that you drop.
