Ryan’s Phrase Of The Day: On The Cusp

Meaning: About to do something

, soon.

Example (1): “I’m on the cusp of flying home to England for Christmas as my flight is now less than 50 hours away. SO EXCITED! However, I first have to attend a Christmas party this evening. It’s a tough life.”

Example (2): “One hour ago I booked flights to and from Berlin and I’ll fly there on Saturday so I’m also on the cusp of going to Germany for the very first time. Happy days! If anyone has some tips I’d be immensely grateful.”

See ya!
