the ball is in your court
يعني أنه حان الوقت لشخص ما للتعامل مع مشكلة أو اتخاذ قرار، لأن الآخرين قد قاموا بأقصى ما يمكنهم فعله.
ويقابله في العربية: "الكرة في ملعبك"
أمثلة:
I've helped him in every way I can – the ball's in his court now.
Well, they invited you, so the ball is in your court now. Do you want to go out with them or not?
