 In congratulating, people may make more than one move,
for example, “Congratulations! You deserved it, Man.” Similarly,
in responding to congratulating expressions, people do not only
make one move, like “Thank you very much.” Usually they also
say
something else such as “This is because you’re always with me”.

Please note that at the end of the word

‘congratulation’ there must be an ‘s’ attached to
it. So, never say ‘congratulation’ without an ‘s’.
You must say, “Congratulations.”

COMPLIMENTING
Compliment is an expression to appreciate or praise other
people. Compliment is useful to give encouragement so that people
will keep on doing their best and even improve their performance.
When to express compliment:
- On daily basis,
- When someone has done his/her best,
- When you visit someone’s house for the first time,
- If you notice something new about someone’s appearance.
Can you think of other situations when you need to
compliment?
