Domo arigato means thank you (polite form).

Domo is the weakest form of thank you, more polite than that it is domo arigato, and the most polite form would be domo arigato gozaimasu/domo arigato gozaimashita.

(do-mo al-ee-gato go-zai-moss) (do-mo al-ee-gato go-zai-MASH-ee-ta, note that the "ee" in "mash-ee-ta" is pronounced so quick it isnt heard, so pronounce it like "go-zai-mash-ta")

Arigato is a japanese word that expresses thankfulness and can therefore be considered the japanese equivalent to "thank you". One can also say 'domo arigato' which would mean 'thank you very much' or 'thanks alot'.

What is the word 'thank you' when translated to Japanese?

AnswerDomo Arigatou Gozaimasu. Or just Arigatou Gozaimasu.Or Arigato gozai-mas.Or Arigato gozai-mashitaAnything beyound plain old "Arigatou" starts getting pretty flowery, and social structure becomes a part in it. For instance, it would be bad manners for a manager to say "arigato gozai-mashita" to one of his staff under normal circumstances."Domo" is "Thanks" and works well between equals.Domo Arigato (doe-moe ar-ee-got-oe)I've never heard anybody say "Domo arigato" to say thank you. Well, except in that song. To avoid confusion, I usually say "Arigato gozaimasu" when saying thank you in Japanese. Or just "arigato," but that is like saying 'thanks,' where as 'arigato gozaimasu' is 'thank you very much.'AnswerActually im pretty sure its domo arigatou

What does arigato gozaimasu?

doomo means "very" and arigatoo means "thank you" gozaimasu makes it "formal". If you were thanking your sensei/someone you respect or someone you do not know very well you would say doomo arigato gozaimasu. for just your friends, doomo arigatoo or arigatoo would suffice. When writing these phrases in Japanese make sure you use kanji for formal and hiragana for informal. doomo arigatoo gozaimasu would be written using kanji, and when addressing a friend you would use hiragana.
