It's so annoying. I'm looking for the word that says it is "up to" a person to do something. The word "incumbent" keeps popping into my head, but I know that's not it at all. And when this happens, you can't look in a dictionary - where do you start looking? This is so frustrating. Can somebody put me out of my misery and tell me what the word is?
