    How does this grammar point work? I think I know how to thank people for nouns, but I’m unsure how to thank for actions. Thanks in advance!

    I think it is てform + くれて + ありがとうございました. At least that’s what I always use.

    So something like 食べてくれてありがとうございます? Why does くれる use て form?

    ~て form for verbs can also mean “and” – so 食べてくれてありがとう = you ate that for me, and I thank you for it.

    Ahhh, yes, it all comes back now. Thanks Joel!
