在这里, off the hedge and on the ledge是一个比喻性的表达,意思是不再急于( on the hedge )并做出决定( on the ledge )。这不是一个常用的短语!准确地说, ledge部分并不常用。可以说,我这里说的就是为了配合韵律,让我想说的传达的很好。示例: 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. (作为一个团队,我们决定参加一场国际比赛。) 示例: After seeing his artwork, I was off the hedge and decided to commission him. (看了他的作品后,我决定委托他。)
