看美剧学英语高频短语:For the record

明月

For the record: If you say that what you are going to say next is for the record, you mean that you are saying it publicly and officially and you want it to be written down and remembered; If you give some information for the record, you give it in case people might find it useful at a later time, although it is not a very important part of what you are talking about. As in We're willing to state for the record that it has enormous value.

中文释义：备案；根据记录；顺便说；明确地说；为准确起见；正式声明；郑重声明。For the record比较正式的含义是：记录下来，以备后查。但是在口语里，它表达的意思并非那么正式，说话者并非真的想让别人用笔进行记录，他只是想表达：请听好了（请注意），下面我所说的事情很重要。例句：I'm giving you this information for the record.（我向你提供这个情报，以供记录在案。）
