多亏

Structure:

多亏 ( 了 ) + [source of help]

Meaning:

“多亏” (duōkuī) can be translated as “thanks to” and is used to express that, due to somebody’s help, a negative result has been averted. It is similar to 幸亏 but emphasizes a feeling of gratitude towards a specific person for the outcome, rather than attributing it purely to fortune. Often 了 is placed after it.

Examples:

    这件事情 多亏了 你的提醒!

    Zhè jiàn shì qínɡ duō kuī le nǐ de tí xǐnɡ

    Thanks to your warning about this matter!
