    At this point, I don't even know if I'm breathing correctly.

    "thank you" "you should be" Try that one guys
  • @st4ndby
    „No worries“ is still my favorite. For me it fits in most situations and sounds always friendly and not to self-praised. Just a friendy response
  • 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.
  • “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”

    I am a military veteran. I very frequently hear, “Thank you for your service.” I’ve begun to reply, “You’re worth it.”

    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!
  • I always say "No Problem" because it's really not a problem helping someone out.
  • @1ACL
    "You're welcome " is perfectly fine and very gracious.
  • @NorthernKitty
    "I know you'd do the same for me" is the absolute BEST response to that person who you know would NOT do the same for you!! 😁
  • 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!

    Lucy, this video is 8 minutes of therapy for the immense ingrattitude I have endured in life.... Thank you!

    If everybody in hollywood movies spoke just like you, i wouldn't need to read subtitles
  • @Olivs_66
    My Mom: "Thank you for setting the table!" Me: "We appreciate your business."
  • @islanddon865
    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.

    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".
  • @TedBurke
    a great example of overthinking the least problematic part of a conversation.
  • @louisyeo2009
    cashier: here's your change, thank you me: it was the least i could do.. cashier: wtf
  • @J077535
    Cuando alguien te agradece con un "Thank you", lo mejor es responder en español con "De nada, hijo".
