助かりました。
Tasukarimashita.
That helped a lot.
- Word for word
- “I was saved.”
- Politeness: Polite
- です/ます style. The safe default with strangers, shop staff and colleagues.
- When you would say it
- After someone helped you out of a small problem.
- Worth knowing
- Nicer than a bare thank you when the help was real.
