It's on the tip of my tongue.

從字面上看,“tongue”表示“舌頭”,“tip”是“尖、尖端”。有時候,別人問你什么問題,你話到嘴邊,可就是說不出來——思維短路了,這時候你就可以說“It's on the tip of my tongue.”

=I’m trying to remember, but I can’t quite remember

我好像記得,但是又說不出來。

John had the answer on the tip of his tongue, but Anne said it first.

約翰雖然有了答案,但話在嘴邊就是說不出來,于是安妮先說了出來。

Helen: Who's that?

那是誰?

Rob: Hmm… erm… I can't remember her name… it's on the tip of my tongue.

嗯...呃...我記不清她的名字了,就在嘴邊上!
