معنی
Standard way to express gratitude.
زمینه فرهنگی
When paying in a restaurant, saying 'Děkuji' as you hand over a large bill often means 'keep the change'. If you want change back, say nothing or say 'To je dobré' with the specific amount you want to pay. Eye contact is important. When saying 'Děkuji' while clinking glasses (na zdraví), you must look the person in the eye, or it is considered bad luck. The 'Prosím/Děkuji' loop: Czechs are very polite in service. You will hear a constant stream of 'Prosím' (Here you go) and 'Děkuji' (Thank you) throughout any transaction. In rural areas, 'Děkuji' is sometimes replaced by 'Zaplaťpánbůh' (God pay you) by older generations, though this is becoming rare.
The 'U' vs 'I' rule
If you want to sound like a local, use 'Děkuju' in shops. If you want to sound like a perfect student, use 'Děkuji'.
Don't forget the 'za'
Always use 'za' if you mention the thing you are thankful for. 'Děkuji kávu' sounds like you are thanking the coffee itself!
