Have you ever encountered someone using this phrase? Mostly Americans only i hope... Please tell me iit hasn't worked it's way Into UK culture?
I witnessed it in New York first hand and it usually came from richer acting/,looking women down to service/staff in shops restaurants.
I remember how overly fake and condescending it sounded, but that's probably how I interpret "appreciate" compared to "thanks" lool but I am sure all British English speakers feel the same? Tbh a lot of pleasant America seems fake to me anyway
I just got reminded of it from a YouTube video and I've had it said to me in Sweden a couple of times by younger people that are polluted by American English culture.
Anyway... Just yapping. I did a AI dive on where it comes from and it hinted West coast USA and there was a few "complaints" how people on Hawaii were saying it too even Ted lasso was famed for it .
