"You are welcome."

Translation: Det var så lidt.

[katebutenko]

As I know, "You are welcome" is a standard response in English to "Thank you". So when somebody says "Tak" in Danish, you never say "Du er velkommen", you say "Det var så lidt" or "Tak i lige møde". So I do not think this is a good example.

Oh, good, I was just going to ask that. So would this be an appropriate phrase for "you are welcome (e.g., in my house)"?

[AlfredSF]

And also selv tak

[olke85]

It seems to be similar as in German

[jan5walter]

velbekomme is a common way to say you are welcome in danish.

Why is "I er velkommen." incorrect?

[Nicoa734]

What does each word on "det var så lidt" mean?

[Ivi1Q84]

Literally: It was so little. As in "It was such a little thing, don't mention it"

[Nicoa734]

Thank you!

[Ivi1Q84]

Don't mention it ;-)

[LeonHoman]

Spanish: de nada. It's nothing.

[Estaban429727]

Very much da nada and de rien then

[tjb1982]

Why not "I er velkommen"?

[BenjaminDam]

"You are welcome" means "Så lidt" or "Selv tak".

Did you know that if you hover mouse over a word you don't know, it will show you the correct answer/meaning of the word

[Ons408308]

Aw man, I got this just after à sentence saying "sorry I am not welcome" so I typed "du er velkommen" as in "sure you can come here, you're welcome here" etc. :/

[Estaban429727]

I've been reading that sentencecas speaker is persona non gratia

[Drevikkdrevik]

"Det var så lidt" means "It was so little" or we would say, "It is the least I can do."

[UNBALANC3D]

Shouldnt you say "det va sar lidt" to say "you are welcome"..... Help me

[Heithr]

I believe this is the other sense of welcome, as in "here" ... you are welcome to be here, with the "to be here" simply being understood.

[Juancho788672]

"You" means both singular and plural so "I er velkommen" should also be a valid answer

[Estaban429727]

I've been reading that sentence as speaker is persona non gratia
