The polite phrase “grazie “ in
Italian
(or
thank you
in English) is an expression that never gets old no matter
how many times you say it. You can hear this social nicety
uttered almost everywhere in Italy, be it at the
town market, the trendy restaurant, the old
gelato shop, or even at the very ordinary and possibly boring
elevator. Perhaps, that’s because this simple phrase is one
of the many ways to show
gratitude
and appreciation to the kind people doing kind deeds to you
and to those around you.
Now, if you’re learning
Italian, you should best be aware that there are many
“thank you”
variations there are in the Italian language. Just like
there are many “thank you” variations there are in the
English language including “thank you very much,” “thanks a
lot,” “thank you, thank you,” “a million thanks,” and more.
