    How it works

    This is a nominalized expression of gratitude consisting of the masculine singular article 'un', the preposed qualifying adjective 'grand', and the noun 'merci'. It functions as a warmer and more emphatic alternative to simply saying 'merci'. It is typically followed by the preposition 'à' (directed toward someone) or 'pour' (indicating the reason for thanks).
