I did some research and discovered that expressing thanks in this small world would be extra special if I could do it in different languages. I felt a little like Joel Grey in Cabaret when he sang Willkommen-don\u2019t think that song wasn\u2019t in my head all week!<\/p>\n<p>I entered the term Thank You into bablefish.com and translated into languages that were common and familiar to me; Merci (French), Gracias (Spanish), Vielen Dank (German), Grazie (Italian) for instance. Grazie is my favorite, it sounds so cool rolling off the tongue-like you really mean Thank you<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I work for a greeting card company in the design department;
