Good for you.

 

[j0n6dj2y2w]

Good for you.

No choice, we have to follow hot new tech, such as Wifi, B.T., MiniSD, and so on.

 

[sabre的马甲]

Good for you.

Good on you.

 

[shw019]

Good on you.

What's the difference between GOOD FOR YOU and GOOD ON YOU? If is there GOOD ON YOU at all?

Of course.
I just said it.
I heard it on the radio. It's used more like a praise.
Good for you is used to congratulate.

昨天 看了一个记录片 I am MLK Jr.

相关年代的总统 LBJ 六十年代大人物 不知道什么原因 在中国人眼里 热点比较低

最近有几个电影 讲LBJ的故事
一个是all the way breaking bad 的cranston演的
一个是LBJ woody harrelson演的
一个是 the path to war 演员不知道

 

[shw019]

Of course.
I just said it.
I heard it on the radio. It's used more like a praise.
Good for you is used to congratulate.

Find an example:
You got married? Good on you!
Synonyms: well done, good for you.

多半是外国人 这个场景 加拿大会说good for you 表示祝贺

我都不知道有 LBJ这么个总统， 马上去了解一下。
I even don't know if there is a president LBJ. I will find some information about it soon.

Good for you is used to congratulate.

There is always something to learn. I've never heard of this expression:

good on you

1. (New England, Britain, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand) Well done; an exclamation of encouragement or congratulation. quotations ▼You got married? Good on you!

It looks like it's not a popular American or Canadian expression, right?

"Good for you" could be used sarcastically. For example, "good for YOU" could suggest it's only good for you but not for anybody else.

挺邪门的 他的下届 尼克松 水门事件中国建交
他的上任 肯尼迪导弹危机 遇刺身亡 都大名鼎鼎

但是 约翰逊民权民生的贡献 比这两位都大
他倒霉在越战上了 被麦卡那马拉和总参害了

CJAD 四点到七点的aaron rand用这个 good on you

俺特稀饭这种幽默。A job? 贵族觉得自己圈子里的人要是有个正常的工作是件狠奇葩的事情。这种喜剧效果除了古怪好笑之外，还能反应社会的形态和变化。老太太最后还一本正经地来了一句：What is a weekend? 绝了！

我同事们跟我说他们辞职的时候， 我都是用这句话接。 Good for you. It is a loss for us. 然后， 开始 blablabla....

Good on you is more popular in Australia. Many years ago I was working in APAC, and my Aussie colleagues would use it whenever we would use good for you.

今天中午，去吃饭。 I messaged my colleague. Are you ready? 要是别人问我， 我一般都说　yep, I am ready or nope, just a minute. But my colleague replied: I was born ready. 学到新东西拉。

还有表现表妹对表兄的趾高气昂那场戏，安排表妹坐在一匹大马上也狠妙。英语中有on a high horse的习语，意思是居高临下，有优越感。
表妹在马上冷冷的一句：I agree, the whole thing is a complete joke. 然后策马而行，表现得灰常好。

有人问我 are you tired
我说 i was born tired
