I imagine one of the first phrases you ever learned in English was, you're welcome.

And you're welcome is fine.

It's a very commonly used expression,

the natural response to thank you.

But it's not the only expression that British people use.

In fact, it can sound a bit more stiff

and a bit more formal than some of the other options that we use.

We do say you're welcome,

but we say lots of other things depending on the situation or the tone.

So today I am going to show you some natural alternatives to you're welcome.

They will range from polite to friendly to informal and casual to typically British.

Are you ready to learn some alternatives to you're welcome?

Let's go.

Let's start with a classic.

No problem.

This is incredibly common in British English, especially in casual situations.

You might hear it when someone is thanked for a small favour,

or when someone opens the door for someone,

or if someone helps quickly.

For example, thanks for sending that over.

No problem.

One thing to note about this one.

Some people might feel this sounds too casual in very formal situations,

but in everyday life it's completely normal.

Thanks, no problem.

This next one is ideal if you want to sound very British and very relaxed,

and that is no worries.

No worries.

It means that was easy,

I don't mind, you didn't inconvenience me in any way, no worries.

For example, Sorry I'm late.

No worries.

You'll hear this everywhere in the UK and I believe in Australia too.

But no worries is very common in the UK.

Now the next one, of course.

This one is subtle but powerful.

It suggests that helping was obvious, expected, completely natural.

For example, thanks for helping me revise.

Of course.

Oh thanks for looking after the dog.

Of course.

Just with this one, be careful with your tone.

If you say it warmly,

it is kind and reassuring.

Of course.

If you say it sharply and clipped, it can sound annoyed.

Of course.

I've been through this before.

Tone matters.

Tone is very important.

Number four is a friendly and and a warm one,

and that is anytime.

Anytime.

As you can probably guess from the word itself this means

i'd happily do it again anytime for example thanks for explaining

that anytime this works very well with friends

or colleagues it feels very generous

and open anytime i'd happily do it again anytime this next

one is very polite very professional can be a touch formal which is fine and that is

my pleasure you'll hear this a lot in hotels restaurants

or shops in the hospitality industry for example oh thank you

so much my pleasure

or it's a pleasure my pleasure you can use this one in everyday life

but it is a tad more formal this next one is

a very natural one number six don't mention it don't mention

it this means it's not worth thanking me it was so little bother to me It's not worth thanking me.

Don't mention it.

For example, thanks for picking that up for me.

Don't mention it.

It can sound friendly or dismissive depending on the tone.

Again, watch your tone.

Warmth is everything.

Listen to the difference with this.

Don't mention it.

Big difference there.

This next one, that's all right or that's okay.

These are understated and of course,

because they are understated, they are very British.

That's alright or that's okay.

For example, oh, thanks waiting,

that's all right, thanks for doing that for me, that's okay.

These are both calm and quite natural.

What we don't always say,

as I mentioned at the beginning,

we don't always say you're welcome.

We do say it but usually when we are being extra polite

or we're teaching or we want to sound very clear or formal,

in daily conversation it can sound a bit distant actually.

So if you're always saying you're welcome.

You're not wrong, but it can sound a bit more formal.

Now let's practice.

100

I'm going to say thank you and without thinking,

101

choose one of the new ways you have learned to say you're welcome.

102

Thanks for your help.

103

Thanks for holding the door.

104

Thanks so much for everything.

105

Write your answers in the comments.

106

There's no single correct answer.

107

Context with this is everything.

108

So if you're not given that much context, it's not as easy.

109

And there you go next time someone says thank you in English,

110

you've got many options.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
