on the tip of one's tongue 就在嘴邊
【講解】
tip的意思是“頂端”，從字面看，該習語的意思是“就在舌頭尖兒上”，實際是“差一點就想起，就在嘴邊。”
【對話】
A:Interesting lectures, aren't they?
A:演講很有意思，是吧？
B:Yes, very. I thought the last speaker was especially good.
B:是的，非常有意思。我覺得最后一個演講者尤為出色。
A:Do you know his name?
A:你知道他的名字嗎？
B:Let me see. It's an unusual name. It's on the tip of my tongue but I just can't get it out.
B:讓我想想，是個挺特別的名字，就在嘴邊，可說不出來。
