뜻
The standard response to 'Thank you'.
문화적 배경
Czechs value modesty. If you do a huge favor and someone thanks you profusely, saying 'Není zač' with a smile is the best way to make them feel at ease. In the eastern part of the country (Moravia), you will very frequently hear 'Za málo' instead of 'Není zač'. It is slightly more informal and very friendly. In the capital, social interactions can be faster. 'Není zač' is often shortened or said very quickly, sometimes sounding like 'Nizatch'. In Czech business, 'Není zač' is preferred over 'Prosím' when responding to a specific 'Thank you' for a task completed, as it sounds more professional and focused.
The Safe Bet
If you are unsure which 'You're welcome' to use, 'Není zač' is always correct and polite.
Avoid 'Prosím zač'
This is a common learner error. Stick to 'Není zač'.

Add a Smile
Because 'Není zač' is quite short, a friendly facial expression helps convey the warmth of the favor.
Moravian Variation
If you travel to Brno or Olomouc, try using 'Za málo' to sound like a local.
