一、關(guān)于道謝
【道謝用語】
1. Thank you (very much). / Thanks a lot. / Many thanks.
2. Thanks for your help. / Thank you for the lovely gift / for your invitation.
3. It’s very kind / nice of you.
4. I can never thank you enough. / I really don’t know how I can thank you enough.
5. Thank you all the same.(用于當(dāng)別人因某種原因沒能幫你時。)
【對道謝的應(yīng)答】
1. Not at all.
2. That’s all right. / That’s OK.
3. You’re welcome.
4. Don’t mention it.
5. It’s my pleasure.
6. I’m very glad you enjoyed it.
注意:
在答復(fù)別人的道謝時,不可受漢語習(xí)慣的影響回答出諸如This is what I should do或It’s my duty等答語,因?yàn)檫@給人“不是出于自愿,而是為完成任務(wù)不得已而為之”的感覺。
