核心句型:
It's on tip of my tongue.
我一时想不起来了。
on tip of one's tongue直译过来就是:“在某人的舌头尖上”,这个短语的正确意思是:“就在嘴边一时想不起来”。因此,当美国人说"It's on tip of my tongue."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I can't think of it at the moment."、"I can't recall it now."。
情景对白:
Benjamin: Where are we going to meet our client?
本杰明:我们要在哪里跟客户见面?
Shirley: Sorry, it's on tip of my tongue. Let me think for a while.
雪莉:对不起,我一时想不起来了。让我想一下。

②What is the schedule of our boss in London?
老板在纽约的行程安排是什么?
③What is the client's name?
