what is the literal translation of "terima kasih"? I remember last time I was in Jakarta, some people were saying "Kasih, ya?" instead. What's the difference in nuance?

According to the internet, "terima" is a colloquial way of saying "receive", and "kasih" means "love". So, I'm assuming the inner meaning of the phrase is something like "I receive it with love"? (as in, "I appreciate what you've given me"). That's just my guess.
