Thank you very much, or thank you so much?
I was taught to say thank you very much, but it seems people are saying thank you so much, with more frequency.
So which do you use?

Depends on why I am thanking someone, I use both but thank you very much most often.

95% of the time thank you , 4% of the time if extra care/service was provided a thank you very much . And 1% of the time f*#@ you 😁

Usually a "Thank you so much" is accompanied by a two handed hand shake that lingers too long.

I use: Thank you so much.
But I have been known to say "You are a doll, thank you so much" especially if the person is on the ball and gets me something before I ask. But I think that is a southern thing

I follow Elvis's lead: "Thank you, Thank You very much". In a southern drawl...

I use "thank you so much" as a less formal version of "thank you very much" most of the time

MOST of the time I say 'very much'.

Thank you - for regular gratitude.
Thank you very much - gratitude for something above and beyond regular. Thank you so much - when the thing being grateful for affects me personally, or emotionally. |

This. If they reply "no problem", and I could have done it myself, I say "Fuch U".

"Thank you so more" is more emphasized than "Thank you very much", which is more 'formal'.
