French - merci (mehr-see') French - Merci Madame - Thanks (to a woman) French - Merci Mademoiselle - Thanks (to a young girl) French - Merci Monsieur - Thanks (to a man) Spanish - Gracias (grah'-syas) Spanish - Gracias a todos (Thank you all) Spanish - Muchas gracias (thank you very much, literally: many thanks) In Spanish, when a flyer is shoved into your hands, its worth a 'gracias', you normally use 'muchas gracias'. Spanish - Muchisimas gracias (thank you VERY much) - to someone who was useful to you. Spanish - un millón de gracias (a million thanks) - for when someone saves your life. Spanish (Latin America, informal) - Te pasastes. (informal) Spanish (Latin America, informal) - Se pasó. (formal) Which means "You went over the line", or "thanks for going out of your way to help me". When used, it will get you a smile, guaranteed. Oh, yeah..... a quartet: bell heart leaf acorn
