Saying “thank you” is not easy for Chinese people, because they are less to express their feelings. When we learn a foreign language, “thank you” is probably the first thing to learn, it is important to make a good impression upon other people, especially across cultural communication.

So, what exactly are we supposed to say when feel grateful to others, sometimes thank you maybe not good enough or it may distance the communication. For instance, when we are helped by others, if they are strangers, “thank you” would be appropriate, but if they are someone who we are so familiar with, then saying thank you in Chinasounds a little weird, they will think you don’t treat them as friends. So what is the better way to express your gratitude? We can buy them a drink or invite them to have dinner at home, it also promote your intimacy.

“Thank you” can be useful, as it is able to build a bridge for people to communicate, Chinese people are not get used to expressing gratitude directly, while the western people prefer the directly way, that’s cultural difference. I suggest people saying out“thank you” naturally, making it a habit.（大學(xué)英語作文 m.fenghuangtongcheng.cn）
