When I looked the photos of my classmates on the website Chinaren, Some of their names were on the tip of my tongue but I could not remember.

I have studied French already 10 months. Last month, I wanted to say "我步行去上学" in English with my classmate, but the word"walk' was on the tip of my tongue. I just remembered it in French"marcher'.
