Thank you for saying so

Use the phrase when someone compliments you on doing something well.

Can you give me the situation>? When should I say it in a proper way>?

Hi

I would say the phrase is used when you don't know someone that well

Suppose you are singing in a stage performance. Afterwards, your friends congratulate you, and you say - Thanks, thanks!

If someone you don't know that well (or at all) comes up a day later and says - "I remember you - you were the singer in that performance - you were really good"

Then you

I would agree that Dave's comments apply in the US as well.

You could also use that when don't agree with the compliment that was just paid to you.

Well, thank you for saying so, but really, it as happens, Jim deserves far more of the credit.

(As a whole, we are not very good at accepting compliments.)

What about saying, "Well, thank you for saying that"?

'That' = 'so' in that case.

Thanks a lot, MM.

Mary: Thanks to you, everything went well.
Jack: Thank you for saying "so / that".

Do both work?

This is a sweet puzzle. I can’t figure why more haven’t solved it
