ESL: The English idiom completely slipped my mind 1 Year, 11 Months ago Karma: 3
Today, I hope to teach you the idiom, “slipped my mind.” Please read the story below and then write the meaning of the English idiom. You could also try writing a sentence using the idiom.

Yesterday I had a Doctor’s appointment, but I didn’t go. The Doctor’s appointment was for 6pm. Yesterday, I finished work at 5pm and then drove home. In fact, I drove past the Doctor’s clinic, but I still didn’t remember my appointment!!! The appointment completely slipped my mind!!!!

ESL practice:
Question 1: What does the English idiom (slipped my mind) mean?
Question 2: Practice writing your own English sentence using slipped my mind.

Question 1: "The appointment completely slipped my mind." It means that "I forgot about the appointment completely".

Question 2: I was supposed to meet my friend last night, but it completely slipped my mind.
