I OWE YOU ONE
I OWE YOU ONE: meaning and examples
Hello everyone and welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. I hope you are having a good week, and an excellent Thursday.
Once again, today we look at two more gratitude phrases. Today's first phrase is more informal, while the second phrase is more formal.
Today's 1st phrase is: I owe you one
Meaning/Use: This is an informal way to express that you are grateful for something, and that you intend to return the favour.
Example 1: Thank you so much for covering for me at work yesterday; I owe you one!
Today's 2nd gratitude phrase is: Your help is greatly appreciated
Meaning/Use: This is a more formal expression that is suitable for more formal professional settings. You might use the first phrase with your colleague at work, and this second phrase with the CEO or general manager.
Example 2: Your help is greatly appreciated on this project. I couldn't have done it without your support.
Now it's your turn to create a sentence with gratitude. I encourage you to write a sentence (or two) using one or both of today's gratitude expressions. You can post your sentences on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky) and we will give you feedback about your writing ASAP.
Tomorrow we'll be back with our last lesson of the week. In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your day.
All the best!
