if you say that sth speaks for itself, you mean that its meaning or quality is so obvious that it does not need explaining or pointing out. 类似的中文表述：好酒不怕巷子深；桃李不言，下自成蹊。等等

修正一下我的解释：1)用于物 the couch is taken；
2)用于人"I'm already spoken for,"意思是you're in a relationship, and thus unavailable.

it means it has been ordered, it is not available for sale. nothing to do with 好酒不怕巷子深；桃李不言，下自成蹊

"sb is spoken for " means "sb is engaged or married".
"sth is spoken for" means "sth is reserved or booked"
" speak for itself" means there is no need extra comment on sth.

"酒不怕巷子深；桃李不言，下自成蹊" is not correct in the sentence. this "for" is not that "for"

人家是说 'sth speaks for itself' 这个表达的意思呀。不是说sth is spoken for, 所以何来错呀？

对啊，所以我说在那个句子里面不对，因为此”for“非彼”for“。我又没有说翻译的spokes for itself翻译的不对。

couch is spoken for. 他后来自己也修正了。 wincity说有解错的，你最好和他确定一下，他是不是和我说的一样。
