对我来说,中文很有意思。 (duì wǒ lái shuō, zhōngwén hěn yǒu yìsi.) — "For me, Chinese is really interesting." That sentence shows 对...来说 (duì...lái shuō) in action: you frame a statement from someone's point of view before saying what is true for them.
Use 对...来说 (duì...lái shuō) to express how something feels from your own or someone else's perspective. Put 对 + a person + 来说 at the beginning, then state what is true for them. The grammar example is 对我来说,中文很难 (duì wǒ lái shuō, zhōngwén hěn nán) — "For me, Chinese is difficult." You can swap in anyone: say a movie is boring for you but fun for your friend, or that for children, something is too difficult.
