뜻
Said when someone thanks you for something.
문화적 배경
There is a 'generational divide' where older Americans prefer 'You're welcome' and younger ones prefer 'No problem.' British people often use 'Not at all' or 'That's alright' as alternatives to avoid sounding too 'American.' Australians are famous for 'No worries,' which is used almost as often as 'You're welcome.' Canadians are known for being exceptionally polite and will almost always use 'You're welcome' or 'My pleasure.'
Add 'Very'
Saying 'You're very welcome' makes you sound much warmer and more sincere.
Watch the Spelling
Never write 'Your welcome' in an email. It is a very common mistake that looks unprofessional.
