Arigato is less polite than Arigato gozaimasu. Arigato gosai mas is probably Arigato gozaimasu but... it doesn't exist? 😂

So basically Arigato gozaimasu and Arigato gosai mas are the same, but Arigato gosai mas is how you say it right?

@MwMantas nope, when you write ありがとうございます it's arigatou gozaimasu (or arigato but it's not really correct...) and arigato gosai mas... well it's probably arigato gozaimasu but it's really a pain for the eyes, it's the first time I see it like this x)

Arigato=thanks!
Arigato gozaimasu=thank u very much
It's like talking to friends when talking to someone you know well, you can just say arigato. If ur at a restaurant, arigato gozaimasu is more formal
