¡Hola!, tengo un amigo que me envió algunas fotos, y le agradecí, le dije: "gracias por las fotos". Pero él me dice que está expresión de agradecimiento está mal escrita, y me dijo que se debe de escribir: "I thank you for the photos". Pero "for the" me parece incorrecto usarlas, se traduce raro. ¿Cuál respuesta es correcta?, gracias por tu ayuda.
