  1. Hi Ester!

    I have found the 8 different ways to say thanks, see:
    Informal
    -Thanks!
    -Thanks a lot!
    Formal
    -Thank you very much
    -Thank you so much
    -Thank you kindly
    -I can't thank you enough
    -I don't know how to say thank you
    -Thank you for you all your help.

    I think that if a someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert, I would answer Thanks a lot or I can't thank you enough.

  3. If someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert of my favourite singer I prefer to say "thanks a lot" if it is an informal conversation (with a friend) or "thank you so much" if it is a formal conversation (with a classmate).

  4. Just thanks is the best way, short, easy and expresses the same.

  5. If the person who gives me the ticket it's my friend. I would use " thanks", but If the person who gives me the ticket it's a stranger. I would use "I can't thank you enough"

  7. If someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert of my favourite singer, first I don't belive this person, but after, when I see that it's true I will say "I don't know how to say thank you" and I will hug the person.

  9. Hi Esther!!!

    Ohh, I did not know they had many ways to say thanks. It was very interesting to discover!

    Surely, if someone gave me a ticket for go the concert of my favorite singer, I would choose: I can not thank you enough, because it would be incredible.

  10. Hi!
    If someone give me a ticket to go a concert I would say to him or her thank you very much because is more formal than thank you but this two expressions I can use to say thanks to someone who gives me a ticket to go a concert.

  11. If someone gave me a ticket for a concert I wouldn't know how to act and the best way to thank to those person. I think I would say something like I can't thank you enough or I don't know how to thank you.

  12. Hi Ester! I have seen the video about the 8 different ways to say thanks. I think if someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert, I would answer I can't thank you enough or probably I don't know how to thank you. This situation will be really amazed but I think it is an unusual situation too.

  14. Hi Ester!
    I will be very sorprised if someone give me a ticket for a concert of my favourite singer because nobody gives anything free.
    I will say "I can't thank you enough" because it's a formal form to say thanks to a person, wich can be your friend or a strange person. It's a special ocasion and maybe next to the thanks I embrace fondly to my friend!

    See you!

  17. Hi Ester!

    I see the video now and I think if someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert, I will say "I can't thank you enough" or "I don't know how to say thank you". But as it will be a amazing situation probably I only say "Thanks" because I will be nervous.

    Bye!

  18. hi Esther!

    If someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert of my favourite singer I prefer to say "thank you kindly", is a informal expression but correct form too in this ocasion.

  19. Hi Ester!

    Uau, i didn't know all the possibilities of say thanks, and i think that it's a good think to know it.

    So, if someone give to me a ticket for a concert and it's a person who i have a lot of confidence, and it's an informal situation i would say to her/him thankyou so much, but if it's someone who a don't know her/him very much, and it's a formal situation, i would say her/him, i can't thank you enough.

    See you tomorrow!

  20. Hi Esther!

    If one of my friends give me a ticket to go to a concert of my favourite singer, I would be very excited and happy. And I would say: I can not thank you enough.
    After, I would give him/her a big kiss and a big hug.

    See you!

  21. Hi Ester!

    If someone gave me a ticket for a concert of my favourite singer I would say "thank you a lot" if it was a friend and "I can't thank you enough" if it was an unknown person. In both cases I would be so excited that I wouldn't know what to say.

  22. Hiya Ester!
    Wow, this situation would be amazing!! surely my way to say thanks would be the next: Thank you so much, I don't know hoy caw I thank you enough!! And as the person that gave me the ticket would be, without doubt, an unbelievle person I'd say to him or her if he or she wants to go with me to the concert!

  23. Hii!!

    I didn't know that there are many diferent way to say thank you to somebody!! I think that's useful! If someone give me a ticket to a concert(doesn't matter the singer i think that this present it's amazing anyway) i'll be grateful and maybe i won't believe it. I'll say thanks very much to the person who gives me the ticket. And I'll remmeber it always!!

  24. HI ESTHER!!
    If someone gives me a ticket to go to a concert of my favorite singer, and it is a stranger the first impact would be that I’m dreaming and after I believe it I would answer with a very enthusiastic tone “thank you so much”, and if it is a friend I think that first I would ask him or her why she has given to me the ticket and after when I would understand I would say “thanks a lot” without leaving the smile on my face.

  25. Hi Ester!
    I would say "I don't know how to thank you".
    I prefer this form to say thanks because I think that it's more formal.
    I didn't know this person that gave me the ticket, and I think that this is the best form to say thanks.
    see you

  26. Hi Ester!

    I looked differnt ways to say thanks and I found 8 forms in American English and British English 6 ways are:
    U.S.:
    - Informal language:
    Thanks!
    Thanks a lot!
    Thanks a million!
    - Formal language:
    Thank you very much
    Thank you so much
    I can not thank you enough
    I do not know how to thank you
    Thank you for all your help
    And Britain:
    - Informal language:
    Cheers! → Thank you (this term is also used by the British to say Cheers when provided with glasses).
    Thanks ever so much
    I appreciate it
    - Formal language:
    You are too kind.
    I'm very grateful
    What can I say, You are the best!

    As for if someone give me a ticket to a concert by my favorite singer, he would not know how to thank,but the most probable is thanked him repeatedly, for example:

    -I can’t thank you enough , Thanks a million!!! Thanks a lot!!Thanks!

  28. Hello Ester!

    I have seen the video and I think it is so interesting! I think I would say something like "I can't thank you it enough, thanks a lot!", if a friend brought me a ticket for my favourite singer's concert! But I don't like to go alone, so I suppose I would give him/her another ticket to go together. It could be great!

    Bye! CU soon!

  29. Hi Ester!
    If I think that if someone get me a ticket I must to say to him the best form to say thanks, for this reason I would take " I can't thank you enough" but actually it's better say first "thanks" and then say the other tense because this form is the most formal form if i don't know who is this person but if I knew who is the person for exemple my friend I only says to him "thanks" because this is the informal form.
    Goodbye!!!

  30. Hi Ester.
    if someone give me a ticket to go to the concert of my favourite singer i'll say "i don't know how to thank you, because i think it's the most formal form to thank to someone if he/she gives you a ticket of a concert that you want to go and you can't buy a ticket because they are sold.
    Bye, and see you soon :)
