The Chinese word 谢谢 (xièxie), meaning "thank you," is derived from the verb 谢 (xiè), which originally meant "to decline" or "to refuse." Over time, the meaning of 谢 expanded to include the idea of expressing gratitude or appreciation. The word 谢谢 is a reduplicated form of 谢, which emphasizes the speaker's sincerity and gratitude. It is commonly used in both formal and informal settings and is considered the standard way to express thanks in Mandarin Chinese.
