Can someone explain the ending of sağ olun?
I understand sağ ol means "thank you", but what does the -un ending mean?

"Sağ ol" literally means "be/stay alive" but we use it as a "thank you"
It's actually an example of imperative form, yet it doesn't have any rude or impolite sense since it's for thanking.
Sağ ol. - Imperative, second person singular; therfore no suffix.
Sağ olun. - Imperative, second person plural; "-n"
As Nazim explained, any kind of second person plural sentences can also be used for being polite.

"Sağ olun" is used in 2 different situations:
1. When you thank 2 or more people - Thank you all, both.
2. A polite form to thank someone (usually, talking to elderly people, strangers or people, you don't know well).
