いただきます

I humbly receive (said before eating)

Itadakimasu expresses gratitude to everyone involved in the meal—farmers, cooks, and dining companions. It is not simply "bon appétit."

お疲れ様

Thanks for your hard work / good job

Acknowledges shared effort and fatigue. Used when leaving work, finishing a task, or greeting someone after their shift.

よろしくお願いします

Please treat me well / I look forward to working with you

Bundles goodwill, cooperation, and a soft request. Context decides whether it means "nice to meet you" or "please handle this."

すみません

Excuse me / I'm sorry / Thank you (light)

Lighter than ごめんなさい and more versatile than 申し訳ございません. The Swiss Army knife of daily Japanese.

すみません vs ごめんなさい

Excuse me / light sorry vs personal apology

すみません = social friction with strangers or light regret. ごめんなさい = personal guilt toward someone you have a relationship with.

ありがとうございます

Thank you (polite)

Polite default in shops, offices, and with strangers. ありがとう alone is for close friends and casual moments.
