How do you say Thank You in Spanish?

The everyday word is gracias. It is always plural — there is no “gracia” as a thank-you — and it works in every situation, from a shop counter to a wedding.

  • Gracias

    GRAH-syahs

    The everyday thank-you, formal or informal.

  • Muchas gracias

    MOO-chahs GRAH-syahs

    Thank you very much.

  • Muchísimas gracias

    moo-CHEE-see-mahs GRAH-syahs

    Thank you so much — stronger, for a real favour.

  • Mil gracias

    meel GRAH-syahs

    “A thousand thanks” — warm and casual.

  • Te lo agradezco

    teh loh ah-grah-DES-koh

    “I appreciate it.” Formal version: se lo agradezco.

Good to know

Thank someone for something with por: gracias por la ayuda (thanks for the help), gracias por ayudarme (thanks for helping me).

In most of Spain the c is pronounced like English “th”: GRAH-thyahs. Across Latin America it is an “s”: GRAH-syahs. Both are correct where they are spoken.

If someone thanks you and you want to thank them back, the reply is a ti — “thank you”.
