Sanz  +  181906 Thu, 12 Jan 06 04:29 AM Hi! today a girl told me that there's another way to say "your welcome", she told something like "thankankyou" this when replying to  "thanks".  I don't know if it's true.

	Clive  +  181922 Thu, 12 Jan 06 06:04 AM Hi, today a girl told me that there's another way to say "your welcome", she told something like "thankankyou" this when replying to  "thanks".   There are a number of ways you can reply when someone says 'Thanks'. eg You're welcome Thank you (with the stress on the last syllable. The meaning is that I want to thank you.) No problem. (This is very common in informal, spoken English. Some people, including me, find it irritating) There's also the choice, rather neglected these days, of just accepting the thanks and saying nothing in return.

	Sanz  +  182265 Thu, 12 Jan 06 08:27 PM Thanks for answering Clive you're very kind as ever . Sorry for my foolish mistake. None of the answers you gave sound like that told by the girl who talked with me... if someone knows that exists something like "than ank you" in replying to "thanks" please let me know!

	Novalee  +  182314 Thu, 12 Jan 06 11:31 PM Could it be "not at all"? I learnt that as a way to respond to "thanks". I don't know if people use it, though. Novalee Joined on Fri, Jun 11 2004 Full Member 104 Synonyms

	MrPedantic  +  182341 Fri, 13 Jan 06 01:00 AM It could have been: "And thank you!" where the "And" was shorted to "An": "An' thank you!" MrP MrPedantic Joined on Tue, Oct 12 2004 Veteran Member 12,592 ...opella forensis / adducit febris... Synonyms

	Swiss Jake  +  182389 Fri, 13 Jan 06 04:29 AM Hi What I have noticed, most people just say "yop". Some interjection. That's it. "You are welcome" is more like a big thing and is not really often said . "You are welcome", is also used if people say thank you sarcastically meant.

	Clive  +  182412 Fri, 13 Jan 06 06:07 AM Hi guys, I think there is probably a great deal of regional variation in these responses to 'Thank you'. Clive  Clive Synonyms

	MrPedantic  +  182927 Fri, 13 Jan 06 11:13 PM "That's ok" is quite common in the UK. "Don't mention it" now sounds a little quaint or sarcastic. "No probs" is much used by IT helpdesk personnel. "My pleasure" seems a bit salesperson-ish. I used to hear "Uh huh" quite often from AmE-speakers. "You're welcome" can have a supplier-to-client air, in BrE. And I'm afraid some people say "cool!". Maybe a smile and a nod's best. MrP MrPedantic Synonyms
