When you'd hear it

드리다 is common in formal polite speech, workplace interactions, public announcements, and respectful writing. Learners often encounter it in expressions such as 문안드리다 and 감사드리다 when speaking to or about someone deserving respect.

What learners get wrong

드리다 lowers the speaker in relation to the recipient, while 주시다 honors the person who gives or does something. Thus, 감사드립니다 is respectful toward the person being thanked, not a casual replacement for 감사해요.
