How common is the saying 太谢谢你了 instead of 谢谢你了?
In the latest evening school class, there was a saying in the textbook, saying thank you as 太谢谢你了. But our teacher told us the book is wrong and it is not common in China to say it like this, and it originally was a theatrical joke made during the 80s, because it is wrong to add 太 before 谢谢 but the saying has now became famous to Chinas youth and our teacher told us this gramatically wrong saying is more and more used now by the young people of China. Is this right? Do you use this saying in daily life?

The way of speaking 謝謝你了 is a little impatient, which is my personal opinion.
All of 謝謝. 謝謝你. 太謝謝你(了). 太感謝你(了) are okay.
Here the word 太 is an adverb, means "extremely."
太謝謝你 and 太感謝你 mean "thank you very much."

@ztxforever: Ah I see, thank you. o^_^o @王彦琪: Unfortunately my chinese is really bad and not as good as it might seem. :( Might you explain to me in english what you have written? @Felix: I see, but I should not overuse it in daily life also am I right?

in daily life, I suggest that you use 太谢谢你了 which represents more sincerity.

意思是一样的，太是助动词。举例子:28°可以说是:天气热，但是32°的时候，就可以说天气太热。
