'Thank you' in cantonese So I'm confused about two ways of saying 'thank you' in cantonese. First, m goi, is used for service and second, do jeh, is used fo thanking somebody for gift. I was wondering,which one use when somebody wishes you happy birthday?

do1 je6. You are absolutely correct "do jeh" is for thanking somebody for gift. It is also for compliment :) Wish you a Happy Year of the Dragon, and a reply to this would also be do1 je6 :)

Do jeh= thank you. M goi= excuse me . Mostly these work.

1.唔該 "m goi" ---> use it when someone just do you a favor 2.多謝 "do jeh" ---> use it after someone give you a present or something for free (e.g. we would say "do jeh" after we've received a red pocket during New Year.) Hope it helps=)
