Is it OK to use this expression? Does this sound natural?
A:
(I rated based on language use, not whether or not the phrase was okay.)
As for the expression, it's not something that I would ever use. American English speakers are almost NEVER this polite to anyone. Although I don't know about anyone else, this kind of expression would shock me and make me a little uncomfortable.
