Reč off the hedge and on the ledgeovde je figurativni izraz koji znači doneti odluku (on the ledge) bez odlaska napred-nazad (on the hedge). To nije uobičajena fraza! Da budemo precizni, ledge deo se ne koristi često. Rekao sam ovo ovde da bih poravnao rimu da bi ono što sam želeo da kažem moglo bolje da se prenese. Primer: As a team, we're finally off the hedge and on the ledge about competing internationally. = As a team, we've made a decision about competing internationally. (Kao tim, doneli smo odluku da učestvujemo na međunarodnom takmičenju.) Primer: After seeing his artwork, I was off the hedge and decided to commission him. (Nakon što sam video njegova umetnička dela, odlučio sam da ga naručim.)
