Signification
Expressing gratitude to a friend.
Contexte culturel
Poles are very appreciative of direct 'thank yous'. It is considered rude not to thank someone for even small gestures. Similar to Czech or Slovak, the use of 'ci' (dative) is a way to acknowledge the individual's specific action. In Polish business, 'Bardzo dziękuję' is preferred over 'Bardzo ci dziękuję' unless you are close friends with the colleague.
