Domo Arigatou Gozaimusu - Thank you very much. Used in formal speech (If you want to express a greater-than-normal degree of gratitude). In informal speech abbriviated to "Domo Arigatou" or simply "Domo". this being the easiest phrase of gratitude, "Domo" is an adverb that literally means indeed or very much but can be understood as thank you. It's a short, convenient, and yet polite phrase of gratitude that can be used in any context.
