On the tip of my tongue

An almost remembered word or idea

When a person uses the expression “it’s on the tip of my tongue,” they are trying to
remember a basic idea or word. People do not use the expression for complex ideas
or information that they do not know.

Which person might say, “It’s on the tip of my tongue”?

A. Emma is a new university student. She is trying to learn Spanish.

B. Brandon is a soccer player. He is trying to remember the word “pitch.”
