English term or phrase: own your response
an audience member responding to a speaker
sergio
Portuguese translation:Responsabilize-se pela sua resposta
Explanation:
This is an expression that is quite common and I believe it is very much in keeping with the context of a question/answer period during a conference. It means taking responsibility for what you say in terms of proving or clarifying the statement.

Explanation:
Achei meio estranho. Poderia ser um erro de grafia? on your response, que seria a respeito de sua resposta, sobre sua resposta.
Se a grafia estiver correta concordo com o Robcav pois o sentido seria assuma sua resposta ou sua afirmação.
