Self-interested是指為了自身利益而採取行動或制定策略之人。舉例來說,人類是利己的生物,會為了滿足自我需求而採取相關行動。Self-interested通常帶有貶義的意思,特別是形容某個人的特質,但在此處是作為某個事實。 例: I think she's too self-interested. She doesn't think about others. (我覺得她太自私了,她從不考慮別人的感受。) 例: Although he is a self-interested person, he is also concerned about the well-being of others. (雖然他是利己之人,但他也關心他人的福祉。)
