Saying how happy you are

Here are some of the ways you can express your happiness in English.

You can be…

- (absolutely) delighted
- thrilled to bits
- over the moon
- really pleased
- so happy


Or you can say…

- I couldn't be happier.
- That is fantastic / wonderful / great / marvellous!


When you hear good news you can say:

- What great / wonderful / fantastic news!
- We've been waiting so long for this (moment).
- Thank God! / Thank God for that!
(British English speakers tend not to be particularly religious)
