What Jazakallahu khairan literally says

Jazā means recompense, khayran means with good. Rather than repaying the person yourself, you ask Allah to repay them, which is a far larger return than any thanks you could give.

Jazakallahu khairan is Arabic, so the meaning is identical for a speaker of Urdu, English or any other language. What changes is the script it is written in and the words used to explain it. Urdu is spoken chiefly in Pakistan and northern India, and the rendering above is the one most commonly used there.
