So interesting! Well, - on the agenda as in "that issue was on the agenda"; - on the alert as in "he�s on the alert for pickpockets here"; - on the ball as in ??? (my electronic dictionary has defined this one as quick to respond to new ideas ); - on the basis of smth, of course; - on the contrary as in "on the contrary, she�s getting better!" ... and many more

That was fun finding those! There are heaps more on this list, many of which I do not hear in the land downunder. |
