We love you for The effort to teach us
I'm starting to follow you, if I'll join I could get conversations?
Greetings from Mexico.
“You’re very welcome”
“No problem”
“Thank YOU”
“The pleasure is mine” “My pleasure”
“I know you’d do the same for me”
“That’s alright”
“No worries”
“Don’t mention it”
“It was the least I could do”
“Anytime”
“Sure”
“It was nothing”
Formal way:
“Much obliged”
“You’re most welcome”
“We appreciate your business/custom”
“I’m happy to help”
This comment is so underrated.
sounds like oblivion npc dialogue
Thanks
Thanks!
you forgot "of course"
"thank you"
"you should be"
Try that one guys
Hhhaarude
Oh gosh 🤣
D Krappenschitz be thankful
lol:D
Haha
I absolutely despise the response to Thank you “No Problem “ when thanking a service worker.
Of course it isn’t a problem, it’s your job!
It's my habit of responding, 'Of course.' It says that my helpful action is exactly how I would choose to behave every time and that I recognize your sincere gratitude.
At this point, I don't even know if I'm breathing correctly.

I am a military veteran. I very frequently hear, “Thank you for your service.”
I’ve begun to reply, “You’re worth it.”
I say "thank you for your support"
Thank you sir… for your service!”
That is such a wonderful reply. I hope I can truly be worthy of your service. Thank you.
🤮
I feel very guilty when they say that since my service was easy and the best years of my life.
*Lucy, this video is 8 minutes of therapy for the immense ingrattitude I have endured in life.... Thank you!*
I like it. Here in Brazil we use almost all these answers to "Thank you" (in Portuguese, sure). They say, "Obrigado", we answer like this, "Sem problema" ("No problem!"); "O prazer é meu" ("The pleasure is mine"); "Não foi nada" ("It was nothing"); "É o mínimo que eu poderia fazer" ("It was the least I could do"); and so on.
So, it's just we Brazilians translate them in English. Thank you for this class, Lucy!

Here's a good one to make points with the boss. I fixed something important for him and explained how it was done, then he went to his meeting. When he came back he said "thanks, you made me look good", I said "that's my job".
Thank you Lucy, I am a 13-year-old teenager from Iran and I learned a lot from your explanations in this video and your other videos

"No problem" gives the impression that if it had been the slightest inconvenience for you, you wouldn't have helped the other person. "I was happy to help" seems to be a better option.
Mine:
-You're very gracious!
-Your kindness is deeply appreciated.
-I appreciate your diligence.
-I'm flattered by your generosity.
-I pray I can return your kindness.
I would think the person is mocking me if I were told most of these, and I am a native speaker of English.
@@user-vw3oz2hn8m they're so extra!
"You're welcome " is perfectly fine and very gracious.
The "Queen's English." Crap. More people speak the "President's English." And, "You're welcome!" is just fine.
Right, i did several business trips to the states and they all say you are welcome or you are very welcome
Better than "No problem" - I HATE that!!

Me: "No, thank YOU"
Lmao yesss that's what I do
Then there will be a war of thank you..😂😂
Oh! Thank you for thanking me!
I feel so thankful right now!
Won't that lead to an endless cycle of thanks? You might be there for eternity saying thank you over and over.
Thanks, I think I'm going to use your example instead of "you're welcome" As a Rideshare driver, I am tired of using "You're welcome" and sometimes it just sounds wrong to me saying it.
USA, here: I loved hearing these! I always find myself saying (in a very kind, upbeat tone), "Of course!" I began saying this in my customer service role, and found it to be respectful and charming enough to use in personal conversations as well. To me, it means: Why wouldn't I do this for you? I value you/care for you!
That sounds so corny. I just say "anytime!" works in every context.
age 67 ( generations matter here) "of course" makes me feel stupid . i don't care for that. also, i am getting tired of "no worries"
What do you think people should say then@@leaveittolefty
I worked for a company where it was suggested you say "absolutely!" it was pretty annoying but I still say it to this day 😂
I am just short of insulted when someone replies to my “thank you” by saying “of course.” To me that is short for “Of course I did (or said) whatever because I had to. It’s my job.”
Really interesting that "much obliged" is a proper phrase in English. In portuguese, "(muito) obrigado(a)" (literally also "(much) obliged") is the most common way of saying "thank you", but I'd never seen a language that used a similar construction in any situation. I suppose both phrases have a similar origin
Sounds partially similar to how its said in Japanese
The best time to use "You're welcome" is clearly when someone *doesn't* say thank you.
You: *Holds door open*
Person: *walks through and ignores you*
You: "You're welcome"
under-rated comment. your welcome

Anna Nowak hiii
@Anna Nowak
Chick fil A kinda ruined “my pleasure” for me. I love their chicken, but I’ve always been unnerved by their army of clean cut, aggressively polite teenagers. The fact that they have done such an effective job of coaching those kids to stick to the script no matter what always makes me feel I’m buying lunch from a bunch of cultists.
Me, as The Smiths fan : *The pleasure the privilege is mine*
Hi beautiful miss Anna Nowak
wow you are sweet like fruit. fruit not as sweet as you but my heart can't fool me my heart cannot lie to me my body can I lie to me my lips I cannot say the word only you are the most beautiful woman in my heart more and more i love you

This gal is smart, entertaining and enthusiastic about her career. She handles a complex subject with aplomb. I certainly could improve in this area and have noticed a general deterioration in society since my school days.
Sometime I wonder is it learning or just listening to you is more satisfying. Thanks you very much.
Me: *A native English speaker, who already knows what to say*
Also me: “Hmm, I really need to watch this, maybe I’m missing something”
Boss2119 • haha sammmee😂

As another human who enjoys sustenance and dihydrogen monoxide for proper functioning, I can confirm that this is also a human.
@@jp4431 known fact: large dosage of dihydrogen monoxide will kill a person in a very painful way.
These responses also require the individual to have an awareness - intuitive awareness - which assists greatly in that instantaneous decision, subconsciously arrived at, as to which response “fits” the occasion. But, as a native speaker, I adopt this “technique” quite naturally and spontaneously.

@@jamesmcinnis208 a boring grammariam
Seriously!😂
Ruthless leader
It’s a YT channel about how to speak English...grammar is part of it.
Excellent tutorial ! So refreshing to have examples of some not so overused responses. One fast food chain in the U.S. trains their associates to say "My Pleasure" after a customer thanks them. I took note and thought, how clever and refreshing ! I've heard of the majority of the responses including the "much obliged" response (much less frequent). I adored how you explained meaning and intonation of each response. I'm Greek so we use intonation much more frequently when speaking to convey intent, joy, or distain. I absolutely adore your series and follow you. I have a few British friends and so I love to hear them speak (and use proper English).
Yes, the response 'my pleasure' and 'much obliged' sound nice , rich and to the perfection.
Was the a reason for capitalising "pleaure" in "My Pleasure"? Am I missing out on something?
I use many of them just for fun. I realized this kind of things years ago and started calling it "auto responding". It just seems so automatic that it has zero personality to it.
I heard "even Stevens" once and thought that's unique.
This friends only one I've used is "for what". Like it was nothing for me to do it as if all friends should be willing to be that kind of friend.
While helping people that was in a small need after their thank you i use "woohoo I'm useful.". Normally gets a laugh. Mostly happens because someone that is shorter than me was brave enough to ask for my help. So in gratitude for trusting me to be helpful. I like displaying extra emotion to prove that some people actually enjoy helping others. Small changes can inspire more happiness
“Thank you”
“Couldn’t agree more”
Perfect
"Thank you for saving my life"
"Oh it was nothing"
Lol 😄😄😄
No worries.
Rofl this is great 😂
As an English speaker for 23 years, I can solidly say no one really pays this much attention to what someone says after a thank you
This is true. I often reply with a 'Fuck Yeah' and noone really notices.

One response I absolutely abhor given mostly by American youth is, "Yep!" They may not mean it to sound so flippant, but it totally comes across as such.
Lucy the best english teacher ever. wish i had teacher like her in school id never miss class.
No. 8 reminded me of a joke I read once:
A girl was going to a friends house for a birthday-party and her mother reminded her to thank the birthday-child for the invitation.
When the girl got back, her mother asked if she had remembered to thank the other girl and she said:
"I was going to, but when another girl thanked her, she said 'don't mention it', so I didn't."
Lol

My SIRI says that and I always respond by saying back “Don’t worry I won’t!” 🥴
Good joke😂

OMG!!! :)
An excellent teaching video, as always. It was comprehensive, and well contextualised, although I have to say I was surprised that you didn’t include the semi-formal “Not at all!” in either list. But thanks once again.
Why, "not at all" is... NOT THERE, AND AT ALL! (pun intended, sort of) 😁 Still - while you've covered most of the options, I think that you should have mentioned that one. Just sayin' 😎
Was expecting „not at all“ to come up, too.
I notice on British TV that often thanking some one goes beyond just ‘thank you’ or even ‘thank you very much’ to go an extra step by saying ‘thank you very much indeed’. In Canada (and probably the US as well) thanks very seldom go beyond a simple ‘thank you’.
You’re welcome is not overused but thank you is underused.
Steve truth
In the north of the england we respond. “Sore-ite” meaning “it is all right” which is shortened to “its allright” which is shorted to “s allright” which became “Sallright” sounds like “sore-ite”

There is also “of course” very casual, Americans say it all the time here

Thank you.
No, thank YOU. The comma is important.
What a nice lesson! I'm a retired waiter, and in this video I've learned a new phrase that I wish I could have employed when I was still serving dinners.
"We Appreciate your custom" is a phrase that would go will with many foreign visitors to my last place of employment - the ritzy El Tovar dining room, on the south rim of the Grand Canyon.
But I will find a way to use this phrase sometime in the future, even if I'm working in a doggy diner. Or maybe, in my case, if I'm volunteering at a soup line during America's upcoming economic depression. The starving wretches (former CEOs?) might appreciate it.
You forgot the most polite English response for Thank you, which is "Not At All"
I like to use “you’re welcome” because it acknowledges an exchange. I was taught not to say “no problem” because it is dismissive of the exchange. Saying “you’re welcome” is a generous way to accept thanks.
@ Kendra Miller - I agree 100%
I think the same. Why not to use: "You're welcome? Better to use these ordinary phrases that everybody understands! There are not only English native speakers that speak English; there are more non native English speakers then native English speakers. So go away with these videos like: "Don't say..... (Let native English speakers use them!)
@taeminsus What icky energy? A cheerful "yeah, no problem!" lets the thanker know that helping them was not an imposition and that they shouldn't worry about having inconvenienced the helper. "No problem, happy to help!" I can't imagine anyone getting offended by this. I almost never say "you're welcome" because it sounds snobby to me. "You're welcome. You'd better be thankful because helping you was a HUGE PROBLEM and I was highly inconvenienced!!"
@@shimmeringchimps3842 "No problem" implies that it could have been an imposition. "You're welcome" communicates that you genuinely or sincerely are glad to help or be of service. When some hear "no problem" they hear "You're lucky I even bothered." So in other words, it may sound snobby to you, but "You're welcome" actually communicates to many others what "No problem" communicates to you. It's a case of reading the room and tailoring your message to your audience.
The problem is that people on the internet wanna tell you what and what not to say.

When I moved to upstate NY I found that when I say thank you to someone, their reply is "Yup". What The bloody hell is that? I always correct them and tell them that they should reply in a more positive and a more grammarly way by saying " Your Welcome or its my pleasure.
No worries, I used often, it's like "no problem". It means don't even imagine that you owe me, " no WORRIES".
Let me bottom line it for you...if a person is offended by the way you express gratitude then that person should get out of the business of helping people.
That person probably helps for the wrong reasons.
agreed, but the potentially offended person is to the one being helped in this case
Right on!
I must be weird. I could care less if someone says high to me, says thank you or asks me how I'm doing. In fact, I'd rather them not ask me how I'm doing because it feels like they're just asking out of habit and not because they genuinely want to know. And I get tired of saying, "I'm fine."

ur damn right buddy,she is just phishing that's it.
Well you could try watching the entire thing. Maybe you did and just felt like making a cocky comment.
Did you listen to the part right after that?
I noticed that contradiction too.
In my experience, "You're welcome" is far from overused. Its shamefully underused. And like anything that is a form of proper communication, it can never go out of fashion or be "over used". Are "please" and "thank you" overused? No. Its just how human culture in the English language processes an exchange.... Yes please, no thank you, you're welcome. They are eternal and transcend fashion.
Eloquently put, April :)
Agree, April.
Agreed
totally agree. Thank you.
Thank you!! My child and I say you’re welcome all the time.
A teacher told me to never say thank you if you didn't get anything, like not hired or denied a loan, or not chosen. It always was a mystery to me if that was right or an FU for not coming through.
Im american, I had been homeschooled by a low income low class single parent, she did not teach me any life skills. My I was never taught how to speak professionally or formally and as a result I struggle to be taken seriously and with respect in the professional field.
I assume I write quite well but verbally I am incredibly informal, partly due to anxiety but mostly due to upbringing.
I feel like a non-native speaker.

@@wesstone7571 ...... Ignorant comment..
"Much obliged" is actually a rather old fashioned 'shopkeeper's expression' typically said when a customer is leaving the shop counter and would not normally be used otherwise in everyday speech. It's a kind of 'thank you for your custom'. I remember well a local butcher who used to bring his vehicle into our garage and who invariably said 'much obliged' when departing, out of habit because that was what he said many times every day in his shop.
I absolutely love love love love the British accent
I'm American, I do say "no problem" at times, and often "thank you" which seems strange saying but in certain situations feels appropriate....I never say "I know you'd do the same for me", mainly because I hate to get into a cycle of returning favors, so don't want to make anyone think they should feel compelled to reciprocate.
@@daviddensford6617 - I would never interpret it that way and it is very commonly used. I don't like it because to me it sounds somewhat insincere but not because it might be taken literally as if it could have been a problem.
@@daviddensford6617 You're certainly no expert on manners. If I want to express to someone a difference in opinion, I would never tell them they don't know what they're talking about, that's rude.
I was working at home depot and helped a customer , he mumbled a ' thanx ' .
I said , no problem , he snaps back in a New York accent , what's my problem ?? '.
I said get fukd my friend , he then left happily ...
I'll give this a like just because I haven't seen any other comment use the word "reciprocate"
You also say "av a nice day y'all" after every shop visit - And HONESTLY after the 5th time of hearing it us British would rather you STICK A GUN IN OUR FACES... 🤣🤣

Очень полезно! Спасибо огромное!!!🙏
I like “Yep”. Short and sweet. Kind of like “sure” but warmer and more genuine sounding. “Sure” sounds like “whatever” to me.
