大家可別誤以為 Speak for yourself 就是字面上的意思 ”為你自己發言”
事實上這句話是用在不同意別人的看法時
指 ”那是你個人一廂情願的想法”, “那是你這麼認為(我並不這麼想)”
比如:
直接 ”嗆” 他說 ”那是你, 我可不這麼想”
如果是你不想得罪或冒犯的人, 最好不要用這句話哦~

比如:
A: This restaurant is terrible.
B: Speak for yourself. I happen to think it’s great.
A: Why are people making a big deal out of unpaid holidays? I don’t mind taking a few more days off.要注意的是, 這句話其實有點不客氣
(大家為什麼要對無薪假反應這麼激烈? 我可不介意多休息幾天)
B: Speak for yourself. I’d rather work 40 hours a week and make more money.
(那是你自己這麼想. 我寧可一周工作四十小時來賺更多錢)

I’m an American English teacher in Taiwan who works almost exclusively with adults.
I don’t teach tests, textbooks, or children.
My classes focus on speaking, pronunciation, and natural conversation, with real correction — not just chatting.
Classes are 100% in English (this actually helps speaking more than people expect).
I’m opening a few new conversation slots right now.
If you’re an adult who wants to actually speak better, feel free to comment or message me.
