Someone with better Japanese than I may correct me, but I think it would be "Thank you, I'm well."
Incidentally, in the most common transliteration systems from Japanese, the Roman letters would be "Okagesama de genki desu".
Hope that helps,
Bill
Bill:
No, "Thank You I am well" is "Hai Genki Desu" Hai is yes, Genki is well, as in ones health is well and Desu is the present singular form of the verb is.
Okaga Sama De means much much more. It is a phrase of words of deep honor. I've seen it translated into two separate English phrases and it's meaning can express one or the other or even both sentiments in the when offering the expression.
It would be said on rare occasion not in daily conversation. It would be said to a hero, or an elder, teacher or other individual who influenced another individuals life in a dramatic and positive way and at great sacrifice. It would be a phrase said by the individual or individuals who benefited from the sacrifice of the other.
The two phrases it expresses include;
"for all you have done" and "I am who I am because of you."
Best.
