Is "This is my year" a general expression? What does it mean?
Native speaker’s answer
Rebecca
When the speaker says "this is my year," she means that this year she will be victorious at the Jimmy Jab Games. This is a general expression which is used to express one's determination to accomplish all their goals this year. Ex: A: Happy birthday! I hope all your wishes come true. B: Thank you! This is my year. Ex: The other team always beat us in the final round. But not this time. This is our year.
