Silent gratitude isn’t much use to anyone — GB Stern

As a child, it was important to acknowledge someone’s contribution to my life with thank you. In fact, my mom will remind me when I forgot to say please and thank you. As I grew into adulthood the amount of appreciation I expressed, and my ability to sincerely say thank you — had a dramatic impact on how I relate to others 😁.

In order to use those powerful words effectively, I compiled how to say thank you in 50 70 languages in multiple formats:

  • Comma Separated Variable (CSV);
  • JavaScript Object Notation (JSON);
  • Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language (TOML);
  • Extensible Markup Language (XML)
  • YAML Ain't Markup Language (YAML);

Seems pretty obvious, right? Refer to this 3-minute talk: TED 2008 — remember to say thank you by Laura Trice for more information about this important topic.
