We Malays in Malaysia say "terima kasih" too. The Malaysian and Indonesian language is very similar. I personally like the way Indonesians talk. :)

Since we live in the US, you might imagine that we express our gratitude by saying "Thank you." But that is not so. Most times when someone does a nice thing for me, I will say, "That's so cool!" I'm not sure where that phrase came from or why it means, "Thank you!", but everyone seems to understand that it does. I guess it just depends on what region of the country or world that you live in.

I belong to India and my mother tongue is tamil.In tamil it is called " Nandri" for thanking someone.
But i have never used this word instead say thanks or thank you.
Immediately after reading your discussion i thought about this as very rarely people use this word nandri.Hope i should follow my mother tongue here after to express my thanks.

Yeah. My answer is boring. It's "Thank You" because I'm from the U.S. However, us Americans can also be ridiculously rude and can say "Thank You" by flipping you off (also known as the middle finger) or by completely disregarding that you even did anything nice for me.
Personally, I also say "Thank You" by saying "You're Welcome" because if someone does not Thank me, I make it obviously apparent that they did not by saying "You're Welcome!" Extremely Loud and obnoxiously but with a pleasantness to it as well.
