Why Saying “Thank You” Can Sound Awkward in Chinese

“Thank you” is polite and natural in English, but in Chinese, saying it too often can feel awkward or distant. In this video, I explain why gratitude in Chinese is expressed differently, and how social closeness changes when and whether people say “thank you.” This video is for Chinese learners who want to sound natural, not overly formal, in real Chinese conversations. Many learners say “thank you” in Chinese out of politeness, without realizing it can sometimes create distance instead of warmth. If you’ve ever felt unsure about when to say 谢谢, this video will help you understand the unspoken rules behind it.
