Hello everyone, hope you're well.

Today, I'm back with a French expression in just a few minutes.

If you are new to the channel, before you start, consider subscribing right away so you don't miss any videos.

So, the expression we're going to see today is "being on the ball".

Being on top of your game is a colloquial expression for being super-motivated and full of energy, as if you'd seen a Red Bull or taken a vitamin C shot.

We have, we're bursting with energy and I'm going to give you some context to help you understand the expression better and, above all, so that you can use it yourself in sentences. Here's an example: this morning, I'm in a hurry. I've already been running for two hours and swimming for an hour, and now I think I'm going to bake cookies for the whole family. I've got too much energy. Here's a second example. For example, if I had a, I had a job interview this morning, I can say I was on my toes.

During the interview, I answered all the questions. Great. I'm sure I'll get the job. I was too motivated to get the job. That's it for today's expression. Don't hesitate to comment on sentences in which you use this expression. Be on the ball to learn how to use it. I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll see you soon for a new video. Have a great day!
