Hello. I have five questions.
1. Should
thus or
so be followed by a comma? I know other transitional adverbs such as
however are followed by a comma, but I'm not sure about
thus or
so.
2. Which of the following is right? "
in this matter" or "
on
this matter" Here's a context: let's say I'd like to thank you for
helping me with English grammar. Fill in the blank please. "Thank you
for the time you've devoted __ this matter."
3. Is 'Thanks' less polite than 'Thank you'? Is 'Thanks' used more
often than 'Thank you' when thanking someone you know well, as opposed
to a stranger? Do you normally use 'Thanks very much' (I know people
use 'Thanks so much')?
Thank you
