People like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind for them. It is a very good habit.
You should say “Thank you” when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is beautiful. We can use “Thank you” not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.
“Excuse me” is another short sentence we often use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk pass you without touching you. When others are talking, if you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence“How do you do? ” for example, if you look up each word in the dictionary, once at a time, what is your translation(翻译)? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.
Languages don’t just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.
“She only likes apples. ” “Only she likes apples. ”
“I have seen the film already. ” “I have already seen the film. ”
