in the western world, people love to say 'thank you' even for the smallest things. if you buy something at the store, the customer and the clerk both want to say 'thank you.' when someone pours you a drink, we also want to say thank you. when someone gives you praise, we don't say "where, where," like in china. in the west we just say 'thank you.' however, it is important to use other words to express "thank you" that will show you can speak fluent english. and your english is very fluent, right?
