As an English speaker people say "you're welcome" all the time it's very polite and perfectly okay to say

[kimwhitehead]

Please know “you’re welcome” is perfectly acceptable and shows kindness to others. Don’t be so concerned about snobbery and forget kindness is most important.

[mrsmcdonald]

“You’re welcome” is short for “You’re welcome to my time and attention because you’re worth it.” That’s kindness.

[MIKEZGAMER-gb]

Its HOW you say it versus what your saying, that is genuine

A girl I worked with years ago always replied to a “Thank you” with “Don’t worry about it.” This got me every time, I used to think, I’m not worried, I’m thanking you. ☺️

"Thank you"
"You owe me, BIG TIME!"

[mitchellfolbe]

"You are welcome." is positive reinforcement. It makes the thanker feel better and want to thank you again or compliment you. Other responses acknowledge the thanks but block further responses. "Don't mention it." "OK, I won't mention it." "It's nothing." "Well it's something to me. " We are losing gratefulness in our society. Let's bring it back. Thank you.

RE: "no worries" and "no problem". I was taught not to respond with these two phrases when speaking with customers. I was told that the last word they hear is "problem" and "worry" and we didn't want them to think there was a problem or that they should have any worries. I would respond with: "It's all good!" "Of course, happy to help" I like this topic!

A long time ago I learned with a telephone operator:
- Thank you very very much.
- You are very welcome, indeed.
I loved it and use it sometimes even today. Thanks for sharing.

[jonbrown]

All of these responses are perfectly fine in any situation. This is just making English much more complicated than it already is. Every person is quite happy to hear you're welcome and nobody has ever walked away from a conversation thinking the other person didn't say you're welcome in an inappropriate way.

You're one of the best teacher I have ever had. Thank you so much

[sergioruiz]

"Thank you!"

Me: "It was by the honour of my ancestors that I take your words and forever hold them in reverence. Honour be with you."

[annaburns]

The little girl saying “thank you” when the guy decorated her skateboard and his response of, “anytime.” Was the cutest thing ever. 😊 I will have to try some of these.

I worked for a company that trained us to avoid responding with “No problem.” The service or action provided is supposed to be our problem that we fix. We perceived the phrase as down grading the quality of our service. The phrase may seem benign but I absolutely love the company’s approach. Thank you for your great content! It’s very educational and should be integrated into job trainings.

[thecartoonrobot]

"Happy to help" is my go-to. So much so that it has spread through my workplace as the common response and some of them have told me it is now their standard reply as well.

[bucketlistW]

I’ve actually read an article about how angry some people get when you DON’T say “you’re welcome”. They find responses like, “of course” or “no problem” disrespectful. The article later went on to say that it was typically a generational thing, and that the younger generation will respond with other sayings since they don’t consider the act they’re doing a service, or rather, it’s expected of them.

[jenaer]

I was talking to someone before and said “thank you” and every time she said “it’s ok” like i offended her or like she was sad. even tho she explained it’s just something she says, i honestly have no problem with “you’re welcome” it’s simple, traditional, straight to the point, and theres really nothing to be read in between the lines as opposed to some other proposed options

[albagaston]

Thank you for this video. Although we are native English speakers, I'm going to use this video with my child with high functioning autism who only has the one response to thank you. A variety of responses in a person's repertoire will help in social interactions. Thanks again!
