People offer condolences after you have experienced a loss, such as "You have my condolences" after a death in your family. Simply say, "Thank you" and if you wish, continue the conversation, whether it is about the death or another topic.
Con - doll - en -says, that is how I have learned to say it, and am fairly certain you won't sound silly if you say it that way :)
A smile and a heartfelt "Thank you".
"My condolences."
"My I offer my condolences on your loss?"
To condole means to express sympathy for someone. Often used to send "condolences" to someone. An example would be: "Betty went home from college to condole with her mother after her father's death".
Translation: Condolencias I express my condolences = Expreso mis condolencias.
You say "my condolences", not "my condolence". For example, if someone you know has passed away, you would write in a sympathy card "I am sorry for your loss, my condolences".
Its always comforting when someone gives you their condolences after a loss. The best way to show your appreciation is simply by sending a thank you note.
Just don't be a smart aleck and say "Sorry bro, I love you." or if your not related say "my condolences to the family"
AnswerWhenever someone says that they are offering their condolences it just means that they are offering their sympathies. Usually this is used in the case of a loved one or friend dying.
When someone says congratulations to you, or when someone congratulates you, say, "Thank you".
Pêsames.
