May I go to the park with my friends today please?.
To make it even more polite, add the please after asking it. This is usually very polite, and used when you are asking someone who has authority over you for something. You can just say what your question posed as the definition of the word you are seeking: "I'm happy for you." Just say it with a positive tone otherwise it comes across as kind of sarcastic and mean-spirited.All three phrases have the same meaning, but each of them has a slightly different effect when it comes to how polite you are being. I'm not sure it's really a problem, though, if you want to give that message. (I am not agreeing with life as competition - I think I'm more laid back than that I just think it's a valid observation.) Perhaps each of us feel formally obligated to publicly appreciate the success of others, but one's attributing that acknowledgment to oneself would connote a failure of oneself in the ubiquitous competition of life. I am not sure what this phenomenon is - maybe it's some inherent culture of envy in the predominantly-English-speaking countries. I find it odd that I cannot think of a word that conveys both that there are good wishes for someone's fortune AND that I am one bestowing those wishes. However, those words are subjectively indeterminate that is, they do not identify who is offering the happiness for the listener's success. I agree with the above that "congratulations" or "felicitations" (probably not widely used I would suggest "kudos" as another) are the closest we have in English to expressing appreciation for another's good fortune. But it means a different thing when you use it as a feeling, which means to feel happy for someone.Īnd if you need any proof just realize that when you write a letter and you end your enclosure with Sincerely, you truly mean "best of luck". You see the definition of sincere is :honest and unaffected in a way that shows what is said is really meant. You've already found that answer when you first started but it seems like you are a bit blind to see it. A word that express your feeling of being happy for someone is to be "Sincere." Now that I have bored you with that long "sentimental" statement, I will tell you what you are looking for. Which also foretells your feeling of saying "I'm Not Happy For You." For example if your do not feel happy for someone success because you feel like you should be more successful, that word is to be envious or to be jealous.
It's very obvious what you are trying to find here. I am truly sorry but it seems like many people will hate me for this. We are still waiting to see your reliable sources. You still have not demonstrated to any of us that your use of the word "sincere" has merit. I am truly "Sincere" to the lack of experience. Psychologically, I've already control your emotions with just my words.
#ANOTHER WORD FOR THINGS YOUR WAY HOW TO#
Either kindly follow suit, or return to lurker status until you learn how to speak civilly to others. Yes, we do see that you are hurt and feel insulted, even though you are the only one here who has been insulting toward others, and therefore are closed to the fact that your behavior on a civilized forum is not well-tolerated.Īlthough we do not appreciate your insulting tone, we have been nothing but respectful toward you in return. No one can ever take advice from an insult, they just close their minds and immediately assume the answer is wrong because their own pride is hurt. It's very funny how people in this world is so stubborn that it blinds them from the truth. We on this site have demonstrated repeatedly the ability to disagree respectfully. You are the only one who has spoken in a hateful manner here.
As you can see I've already predicted your actions before you even make them.Īctually, you said that people would hate you.
