and today's phrase is
Thanks for everything.

Everything. What does this mean?

We will find out,
but first let's do our test.

So I ask you:
So will our company have an IPO?

And you say...

That's right.
Sooner or later.

OK, so not laTer,
but it's kind of like a D sound

la(d)er.
Sooner or later.

OK, let's go on to today's phrase

Thanks for everything.

OK, so let's imagine that Taro
visits me in my foreign office.

So let's imagine I work in China.
I'm in the Chinese office.

Taro is from Japan and he comes
to China, and we do business

And I say:
I hope you visit us again soon.

Thank you for coming to our office in
China.

And Taro says:
Thank you very much.

OK, what do you say in this situation?

Thank you very much
is OK. I hope to see you too.

A very natural phrase is this

So I say:
I hope you visit the Chinese office again soon.

Thanks for everything you have done.

It's a very friendly and useful sentence.
Thanks for everything.

All right, so let's look at pronunciation

Thanks for everything.

Thanks for everything.
The "heart" is important.

Not, thanks for everything, but

You try...

Good. OK and with my sentence:

I hope you visit us again soon.

Good! OK, so for homework
next time I will say:
