General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters | | English term or phrase: have | It's a pre-race party before the first car race in a racing tournament. The party is attended by all the racers and the members of their respective pit teams.
At one point during the party, the sponsor of the tournament, Sir XXX, is going to "introduce all the racers". The first racer to be introduced walks up onto the stage (where presumably Sir XXX is waiting) and says:
"Thank you so much for having us, Sir XXX"
(Here, "us" presumably refers to the racer and his pit team.) |

I sammanhanget motsvarar "thank you for having us" ungefär
"tack" för att vi fått komma", "det var så rolig att få komma", "tack för att vi får vara med" etc. Hur man översätter beror naturligtvis på kontexten.
