    Well, a rottweiler looks good on a double-glazing salesman but is not good for him. Does that explain it?:)

    Steering clear of timpeac’s rotty for a moment, the question might be understood differently when taken with a sprinkling of punctuation.

    What is the difference between: «Good on you!» and «Good for you!».

    I’ll have a go at answering that version of the question, in case that was what Claude23 meant.

    They both mean more or less the same, «Congratulations, I think that you have done very well.»

    «Good for you!» would be heard quite often in BE, but would not appear in formal written English.

    «Good on you!» really should appear as «Good on you, mate!» and seems to me to be more typical of Australian English.

    Incidentally, the stress in these two exclamations is completely different.

    Good on you. Good for

    you

    «Good on you» is rarely heard in Canadian English (AE as well I would assume), I agree with panjandrum that I think it’s an Australian saying.

    I agree it is probably Australian in origin but I hear it every day here in London — probably because people spend half their lives watching Australian soaps. Fair play to you is often used a synonym for this too.

    ‘Good on you’ is a lot more common than ‘good for you’ in Australia, and yes, ‘good on you’ basically means ‘well done’ (unless of course it’s said sarcastically, and then it means the opposite!) It can be shortened to ‘onya’.

    eg. Onya, so-and-so
    This means ‘good on you, so-and-so.’

    On the other hand, I have never heard ‘good for you’ used to mean that. I would expect ‘good for you’ to be used more to mean ‘I don’t really care.’

    eg. A: Guess what I’m doing tomorrow while you’re at school? Going to the movies!
    B: Good for you.
    (B could add, ‘get lost’, ‘tell someone who cares’ etc.)

    So basically, ‘good on you’ is heaps more common in Australia, and if I ever hear anyone say ‘good for you’, it would probably mean ‘I don’t really care’.

    I think “Good for you” is “Bien por ti” An example: (using the same example of Mr. X)

    Guess What I’m doing tomorrow while you are at school? I’m going to the movies!
    Good for you.

    In spanish:

    ¿Adivina que voy a hacer mientras tu estas en la escuela? ¡Voy a ir al cine!
    Bien por ti

    It is another way to tell “get lost!”

    Not necessarily in British Engish — it could mean that if the tone was nasty — but the general phrase is positive. I hear it all the time.

    Here’s an AE view, which adds little to what has been said.

    -Hearing ‘Good on you’ would bring Australia to mind, instantly.
    -Good for you has two distinct meanings, depending on context and tone of voice
    ….1) Well done, or I’m happy for you.
    ….2) Eat my shorts! You are certainly full of yourself, you worm turd. May you further inflate your sorry self until you burst with pride or just plain burst.

    • #10

    Well, I must say I had a different take on the «good on you» phrase completely. I, actually was thinking more along the lines of something looking «good on you», as in when my husband gets all decked-out (dressed-up) to go out and he stands before me for my appraisal. «Mmmmm. . . that looks mighty good on you, babe!» would be a typical comment from me. Or if he were wearing one of his sexy colognes, I’d say, «Oooo, that smells really good on you!»;)

    I’ve never heard the phrase, «Good on you!» on its own.

    I’m in complete agreement about «Good for you!» It can be said in an enthusiastic tone and be a cheer or congratulations, or it can be said in a snide, sarcastic manner and mean the opposite.

    So, was I off-base with the first expression?

    I’ve seen scant evidence of «good on you» in AE, but in each case it was being used by Vietnam veterans. There were Aussie units there, of course, and taking your R&R in Melbourne wasn’t real common, but it was one of the options.

    I agree with the others…

    Good on you..brings the Aussie to mind..
    Good for you…can be used for both positive and negative….
    «WOW..you won a million dollars..good for you!» (you deserve it)
    «WOW..you won a million dollars..good for you!» (like you need another Porsche ..you jerk)
    So using ‘good for you’ depends on the situation and how well you like that person…

    “Good for you” is one of those idioms in English that you need to be careful about using based on your audience. Most of the time, you should be fine, but it is always worth having alternatives at the ready if you want to congratulate someone and think you might use the wrong tone.

    What Does “Good For You” Mean?

    “Good for you” means congratulations. It is used when somebody wants to congratulate someone else for succeeding in a task or participating in something. “Good” means something worth congratulating has happened, and “for you” means that that good thing has happened to you. So, when the phrase is combined with “good for you,” people are congratulating you for what you have done.

    How “Good For You” Can Also Be Used Sarcastically

    Okay, so right now, “good for you” looks like a delightful phrase; and it is. It’s really nice to say to someone, but it’s only nice to say to someone when you actually mean it. If you say “good for you” without meaning it, then chances are you’re going to offend somebody. But you might be wondering what about the phrase could be offensive, even if you don’t mean it.

    “Good for you” is a particularly common phrase to use sarcastically just as much as congratulatory. In fact, the two different meanings for the sayings are finely balanced, and sometimes even when you say “good for you” with good intentions, someone might misunderstand your meaning and be offended by what you said.

    To use “good for you” sarcastically, it is said without meaning and often in one tone. There is no expression of congratulations or happiness on the speaker’s face when they say “good for you” in this way. It’s most common when someone has achieved something that you’re not all that happy about, or if they achieved something that you would like to have achieved yourself.

    It’s associated closely with jealousy, and people often say it when they’re upset that they didn’t get the spoils that the person they’re saying it to did. If you’re unsure whether you’re saying it in the right context or the right way, you’ll be better off looking for another word or phrase to say instead that doesn’t come with any potential sarcastic ulterior motives.

    Is It Rude To Say “Good For You”?

    As we’ve mentioned, it’s incredibly rude to say “good for you” in a sarcastic way. However, the good thing about this phrase is that because it’s so personal (using “you” in it), people don’t often have the ability to say it to your face. It’s a really harsh thing to say, so unless you really dislike the person, you’ll often avoid saying it (even if you mean it). That’s why it’s more commonly seen in text than anything else because you don’t have to deal with the face-to-face repercussions.

    However, the actual phrase “good for you” isn’t rude at all. When you mean it and intend for it to be said as “congratulations,” then people will often understand. They’ll never think twice about what you could have meant and won’t be worried that you’re sarcastic. It’s still a common saying that people use positively, and as long as you show that you mean it nicely, people will respond kindly.

    Let’s look at a few examples using “good for you” in a sentence. This way, you’ll learn the context of the phrase a little better. Examples are some of the most useful ways for you to learn more about the English language and all the rules and quirks that might come with it, so let’s get cracking.

    • Good for you for winning that competition.
    • Good for you for showing up today.
    • You passed your test! Good for you!
    • Good for you on graduating!
    • Did you get a medal? Good for you.
    • Good for you for teaching your children respect.
    • You’ve had a baby girl! Good for you!
    • Good for you for looking after her in her time of need.
    • Good for you for making the mature decision.
    • Good for you for being there for him.

    Other Ways To Say “Good For You” (So That You Don’t Risk Seeming Sarcastic)

    If you’re struggling with saying “good for you” without seeming sarcastic, there’s one last thing you can do. You can use alternatives. If you struggle with your speaking tone (or even writing tone), then this might be the best option for you! We encourage anyone to do this who is worried about potentially coming across the wrong way.

    • I’m happy for you

    This variation isn’t used sarcastically as often as “good for you.” No one is going to think you’re sarcastic if you say this in place of “good for you,” and it shows you took a little extra time to deliver your message.

    • Congratulations!

    Again, it’s not often you see this word used sarcastically. However, it is the most commonly used word to congratulate someone, so if you’d like to be seen putting more effort in, you might want to choose something else.

    • I’m pleased for you

    Exactly like the first example, but instead of “happy,” we’re using “pleased.” This one is considered a little calmer as a congratulation and is better for formal congratulations.

    • I’m proud of you.

    This is a really nice way to say congratulations that a lot of people respond well to. It’s human nature to want to make somebody “proud” of you, so it works a treat.

    • Good job!

    This one is short and to the point. Instead of an easy “congratulations,” we’re working a little harder to make sure they know we mean it.

    How To Respond To Someone Saying “Good For You”

    If someone does say “good for you” to you, make sure you listen for their tone and delivery. If they meant it, then you should respond with a “thank you” because they’re kind to you. However, if they’re sarcastic to you, you don’t have to respond at all. It’s better to leave the situation and the conversation alone because that rude person isn’t worth your time!

    good-on-youВсем известно, что «good FOR you» — это один из способов сказать «ай да молодец!», на английском. Также известны фразы «good job» или «well done», имеющие такое же значение. Кто же начал говорить «Good ON you» вместо этой фразы? Мы решили поинтересоваться, с каких пор «Good on You» стало правильной фразой, и заглянули в словарь сленга The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang, где узнали, что «Good on you» происходит из Австралии. Оказывается, в этой англоговорящей стране принято говорить именно так, но хотя такая форма является общеупотребляемой, она все же рассматривается как сленг.

    Согласно информации, опубликованной кафедрой лингвистики Австралийского Национального Университета, фраза «good on you» — это выражение, которое поначалу использовалось представителями рабочего класса, а впоследствии получило широкое распространение, выражает глубокий оптимизм. Хотя «good on you» часто используется в качестве поздравлений или похвалы за хорошую работу, у него все же другое значение: вы можете сказать «good on you» другу, который принял решение бороться с тяжелой болезнью. В такой ситуации никак не подойдет фраза «well done», «good job» или «congratulations!», которые используются в качестве похвалы исключительно за выполненную работу. «Good on you» можно перевести как «прекрасно! отлично!, похвально! неплохо!», то есть, выразить одобрение чьих-то действий или поступков.

    good-on-you-3

    Разумеется, «good for you» можно употреблять в аналогичных ситуациях.

    ‘Good on You’ или ‘Good for You’?

    Насколько распространена фраза «Good on you»?

    Как показали наши исследования, «good on you» употребляется как в британских, так и американских книгах, но в американских изданиях преобладает.

    Мы можем сделать вывод, что поскольку «good on you» фигурирует в сленговом словаре, а в обычном проходит под маркой «разговорный», будет справедливо утверждать, что хотя это и общеупотребительная фраза, ее нельзя считать standard English, и поэтому в классических учебниках вы ее вряд ли встретите.

    Примечание: Есть еще одна распространенная фраза «It looks good on you!» — «тебе идет! тебе это к лицу!«. В данном случае on нельзя заменить на for.

    Two phrases:

    • «X is good for you.» This just means something is healthy for you, beneficial for you, etc.
    • «Good for you!»
      • This can be used in seriousness, such as Bruno said. It can either mean «Congratulations!» and «That’s great!», or as a word of praise.
      • The phrase can also be used sarcastically, especially if delivered with an overly enthusiastic tone. In this case, it carries the connotation of, «Wow, that’s great. Do you want a pat on the back or something?»

    «Good for you» generally has an abrasive expression in itself.
    When someone boasts too much about one’s qualities which are of least inclination for the other person, then he would say «Good for you».
