hey there are tons of ways to say thank

you in english and today

i’m going to teach you 20 of them i’m

teacher tiffany

let’s jump right in

[Music]

all right now the first thing we need to

do is break these down into five groups

group a ways to say thank you and focus

on the person

group b ways to say thank you quickly

and easily

group c ways to say thank you and focus

on

their kindness group d ways to say thank

you and focus on what you will do

and group e ways to say thank you and

focus on your appreciation

now if you understand these five

categories these five groups

you’ll be able to master the ways to say

thank you in english

so here we go let’s jump right in now

group

a ways to say thank you and focus on the

person

here we go number one you’re the best

real simple right but you’re focused on

that person

man you are the best

i’m saying thank you but i’m putting

more emphasis

on the person like man you i can’t

believe how amazing you are

you are the best this is the first way

of saying thank you and

focusing on the person so let’s say for

example someone

helps you out when you’re in a very

difficult situation

they come right when you call and save

you you can say

man you you

are the best this is number one

now let’s say you want to continue and

focus on that person

you can say you are the greatest

now for pronunciation after me you are

the greatest excellent last time

greatest good job now again we’re still

in the first category the first group

you’re focusing on the person saying

man you whoo

you are the greatest again i’m saying

thank you by putting more emphasis on

the person so

you are the greatest we also have this

one

you’re a life saver i remember back in

the day uh when i was about maybe

10 or 11 a candy that was very popular

was called

life saver it was really delicious but

this is talking about someone being so

special that they helped you in a

situation that could have went wrong

and had some bad consequences

consequences

so you can say to them instead of just

saying ah

thank you you are a life saver

without you i couldn’t have done that

man

you are a lifesaver again you’re saying

thank you but you’re putting more

emphasis on the person so again after me

you’re a life saver excellent all right

so we got that one down that’s number

three

now number four you have been

such a big help again

same meaning as thank you but it’s

stronger and it actually makes the

person feel

a lot more special so again you have

been

such a big help and with this one you’re

letting the person know that hey

without you i would not have been able

to accomplish this thing

your help really made the difference you

man have been such a big help again

we’re still in group a where we’re

focusing on

the person so last time with me again

i’ll show it to you on the screen

after me you have been such

a big help you got it all right good

let’s go on to the next one again we’re

still on group a

focusing on the person here’s another

way you can say thank you

thank you for always being

there again thank you

for always being there now this is

something that’s very important for you

to understand again as you’re learning

english

when you tell someone hey you’re always

there or you’re always here

it means that this person you feel like

you can depend

on them you can rely on them they are

very

dependable so whatever the situation was

they

came through for you they helped you out

and you want to say something more than

just

thank you you want to say you know what

thank you

for always being there for being that

person that i can depend on

that i can rely on this is a lot

stronger a

really good way of saying thank you and

focusing on the person so again here we

go

thank you for always being

there now let’s move on to group b

quick and easy sometimes you don’t have

a lot of time you just want to say hey

thank you but there are some quick and

easy ways to say thank you so here we go

let me show you

number six thanks

simple right i’m sure you’ve heard this

before but for pronunciation practice

here we go

thanks nice stick that tongue out

through your teeth

thanks excellent this is a very common

one i use this

almost every day via text messages right

to my friends to my family like oh

thanks it’s very quick

very easy but it still means thank you

we say

thanks all right good now another way of

saying it

quickly and easily is appreciate it

i also use this one a lot now appreciate

is just the shortened form of

appreciate it’s kind of slang letting

the person

person know you know what

thank you but quickly appreciate it

means that means i appreciate what you

did for me

thank you for that thank you for doing

that and very quickly

appreciate it so if someone says oh tiff

don’t worry about that

i took it back for you ah appreciate it

i’m saying

thank you so again for pronunciation

appreciate it

good now the longer form is i appreciate

it right

but again quick and easy appreciate it

another one that i want to show you

keep going guys here we go

all right now group c their kindness now

this is a really good one

where you’re focusing on the kindness

what the

individual did for you so this group is

really important here we go

if you want to say thank you and focus

on their kindness you can say

that’s so kind of you now i use this a

lot when students maybe like you

compliment me and say teacher thank you

so much for your lessons

i really appreciate those comments and

those compliments

and those words so i can say that’s so

kind of you

i’m focusing on your kindness i’m

focusing on the kindness of the student

or

students that said that to me right so

you can say

that’s so kind of you here we go

after me that’s so kind of you

excellent all right next one again

focusing on their kindness you can say

that was so nice of you again

another way of saying thank you you’re

focusing on their kindness

you can say that was so nice of you

i’m letting you know that i recognize

what you did

and that i really appreciate it and i’m

focused on the fact that

you are an amazing person like you’re

really kind so i can say

that was so nice of you for example if

i’m

walking outside and i have a lot of bags

like today i went to the store and i had

to buy a lot of things in the store

had a lot of bags in my hand so if

somebody walks up to me says hey

ma’am can i help you out with your bags

man

that’s so nice of you i’m saying thank

you without saying thank you

and i’m focusing on their kind act you

can do the same

that was so nice of you all right here

we go

group d now you’re going to focus on

what

you will do it’s very interesting you’re

still going to be saying

thank you but you’re focusing on what

you’re going to do in return

let me show you what i mean here we go i

owe you one

man this is so common like i owe you one

you did something for me and now i’m

indebted to you

what you did for me man it was amazing i

appreciated it

thank you so much and instead of saying

thank you i’m gonna say

i owe you one thank you so much i owe

you one it means

i’m gonna do something for you next in

return

i’m gonna do something for you we say i

owe you one it’s a really good way of

saying thank you

all right so again continue to focus on

what you will do you can say

man i owe you big time all right it

means that

they did something so amazing for you

something you’re like you know what

oh my goodness i owe you big time

either they gave you a lot of money or

maybe they

helped you out when you were in a

situation that was so difficult

you had no idea how you were going to

get out you could say

oh my gosh i owe you

big time i’m saying thank you but i’m

not using those two words so again

when you want to say thank you and focus

on what you’re going to do for the

person

you can say man i owe you big time

and you’ll sound very very natural now

another way you can do that is right

here

i got you next time i got you next time

now i use this a lot as well you know

okay i got you next time let me explain

and i’ll tell you a quick story when i

was in korea

i got you next time means hey you did it

for me this time and i appreciated it so

much

so much so that next time i got you

next time i’m gonna do the same thing

now here’s the story when i was in south

korea

um in korean culture so you normally

have communal eating right

everyone eats together you may order

four dishes but everyone shares from the

same dish right

so another thing about korean culture

that i learned and i really like

was that one person may pay this time

for everybody but then the next time

it rotates another person will pay for

everyone so for example

when i went out with my friend right we

went out to eat went to a mexican spot

whoo it was delicious annie if you’re

watching

the food was amazing so annie paid for

the mexican food but then after we left

the restaurant we went to a coffee shop

and had

like hot chocolate or a latte and some

dessert i paid for the dessert why

because

she paid for the food then i was gonna

pay

for the dessert i said okay hey i got

you don’t worry you paid for the meal

i got the dessert the same concept i got

you next time

so if someone does something for you you

really appreciate and you want to do the

same

instead of saying thank you can say hey

i got you next time it’s the same

meaning

all right here we go let’s keep going

let’s keep going now the next one is

also very

useful how can i ever repay you

again you’re letting the person know

that what they did

oh my goodness was so amazing you

appreciate it so much and this one is

saying

how can i ever repay you what you did

for me was so amazing

it was so big that i don’t even think i

can ever do the same for you

now you’ll try you’ll make an effort but

you want them to realize that

the magnitude of what they did for you

so instead of just saying oh thank you

i appreciate that thank you you want to

let them know hey

i want to do something for you how can i

ever repay you

and i’ve had that happen to me before so

many of my friends have done things for

me that

blew my mind and even to this day i’m

still

trying to repay them because i was so

touched by their actions remember

uh several months ago i told you all the

story of my korean friend

that helped me with my thesis she spent

literally almost

10 or 12 hours straight correcting

editing and helping me rewrite my thesis

i can never repay her for that no matter

what i do even though i’ve tried

i try to give her money i try to take

her out she’s like tiff it’s okay

i still feel indebted to her and i’m

still so grateful for her

again i could have said hey how can i

ever repay you

right i’m saying thank you but

emphasizing that i want to do something

so you can say the same thing

a very very useful way of saying thank

you now this is another way of focusing

on what you will do

i am forever in your debt

exactly you notice right just like i

told you the story of my friend that

helped me with my thesis when i was in

korea

i can say to her i could have said it

then and i still say it now

i am forever in your debt i am so

grateful

i am so thankful for what you did i am

forever in your debt

so again you’re seeing now that there

are many different ways to say thank you

and once you understand the groups

you’ll be able to change the way you

respond

when someone does something for you so

again i could say

i am forever in your debt you got it

right

all right now there’s one more group i

want to explain to you here we go

group e your appreciation so for example

i cannot thank you enough now i’m

focusing on hey

this is how i feel about what you did

for me

i am so appreciative i really really am

thankful for what you did and i want to

put all that into words so i say

i cannot thank you enough

it means that words cannot express

how thankful i am for what you did so

again

in this group when you’re focusing on

your appreciation you can say

i cannot thank you enough now next one

right here

i don’t know what to say thank you so

much

now you notice there are the there’s a

pause right there right

when someone has done something so

amazing for you

for you you appreciate them and you just

can’t put it into words you can say

i don’t know what to say thank you so

much you see what happened right there

right i paused

because i want them to understand how

much i appreciate them and this is what

you need to do when you want to thank

someone

and what they have done from for you is

so amazing you want to express your

appreciation

do this again i’ll show it to you i

don’t know what to say thank you so much

and as a native english speaker i will

understand that

someone else will understand that ah

they really really really appreciated

what i did

they’re thanking me by saying this so

again this is really really useful

now another one is right here words

cannot express

how much i appreciate you again

still saying thank you but it’s deeper

you want to express your appreciation a

little bit more so again you can say

words cannot express how

much i appreciate you nothing i can say

would help you understand

how much you’ve touched my life again

there are many people in my life

that i can say this about instead of me

just saying thank you i can say yo

words cannot express how much i

appreciate you alright

now another way of doing this is right

here thank you

from the bottom of my heart and i

actually think i’ve used this

one in speaking about you all i think a

few months back

it was during thanksgiving when i did

the video saying thank you

i feel like i said this one thank you

from the bottom of my heart

this is when you want to say my entire

heart is full of thankfulness

all because of you because of how you’ve

made me feel i can say

thank you from the bottom of my heart it

means with my whole heart

everything about me wants to say thank

you so when there’s someone that you

want to

say thank you to someone who has touched

your life so much

you can say thank you from the bottom of

my heart

you got it all right now here’s another

really really good one

you’ve made my heart smile

now i like this one you all know i love

smiling

this one right here when someone does

something for you and you’re like

man they just make you feel better right

you can say

you made my heart smile and again you’re

just saying thank you

but you’re letting them know a little

bit more about how you actually feel

so again you can say you’ve made my

heart smile again to show your

appreciation

now that was number 20. i told you all

five groups

thank you in english

the comment section below

thanks a million four dot dot dot all

right guys again

thank you so much for giving me the

opportunity to be your teacher i will

see you next

week have a wonderful week but as always

remember to speak

english

[Music]

you know what time it is it’s story

time ay i said a story

time all right so since i taught you all

20 different ways to say thank you i

want to tell you

about two individuals that i love

so much i’m talking about my parents

now i have been blessed with many many

people in my life

who i’m very very appreciative of at

everything they’ve done for me

but i want to tell you something about

my parents something that makes me

appreciate them each and every day so my

parents have always been

hard workers but i want to tell you

about when i was

in high school now my sister and i and i

may have mentioned this before my sister

and i went to private schools

our entire life literally i mean from

the time we were young

like five or six we always went to

private schools so we never were in

public schools

which means my parents had to pay a lot

of money every single month

now let me clarify my parents were never

rich

my parents were regular people still are

regular people i think you all would

love them they’re very fun people

but they’ve always been hard workers but

some things that i can never

ever forget growing up i remember when i

was in high school

our high school was very expensive again

so i’m seventh day adventist and it was

a christian high school so

it was more expensive than other schools

and i remember

every single term we’d have to go to the

financial aid

office because again my parents both of

them worked hard

long hours trying to provide for my

sister and i

they believed that a christian education

a private school education

was the best for their daughters so they

would

always work hard but i remember every

single semester

we’d have to go to the financial aid

line because my parents

wouldn’t have enough money to get us

into school that first semester of that

first term when school first started

i remember standing in line but i was

never

embarrassed ever and do you know why

because i

watched my parents work hard i watched

them work

long hours all because of the love they

had

for my sister and i i watched them try

to uh

save money just so my sister and i would

have a good life even though they were

missing out on things

and those qualities those principles

were instilled into my sister and i

so we my sister and i we still to this

day understand the value of education

and we understand the value of hard work

so i remember

watching my parents work hard just so

that i could have a good life

just so that my sister could have a good

luck good life so when i got to college

i decided i’m gonna pay my way through

school and i worked just as hard

got scholarships worked three jobs

because i wanted to give my parents

a break now i don’t have any children

just yet

but i want to do the same thing later on

in life when i have children

why because i’m so thankful

for my parents i’m so

in love with the values they instilled

in us

so i can say to my parents thank you

from the bottom of my heart

why because my entire heart is full of

love for them

remembering all the times they worked

hard just so that my sister and i could

have a good life

now they’re having a good life now my

parents worked hard

my dad my dad worked hard my mom retired

my mom’s retired now my dad is about to

retire

so they’re doing okay but again all of

the images in my mind from when i was

growing up

of my parents working hard made me love

them more

and again i thank them from the bottom

of my heart

so maybe somebody in your life right now

that you want to thank

from the bottom of your heart let them

know how much you love them and

appreciate them

i try to let my parents know that on a

regular basis too

alright guys i hope you enjoyed this

lesson i hope you learned a lot

remember to participate in the challenge

and i will see you

next week talk to you later
