    Say "You're welcome" in Japanese

    How do you say "You're welcome" in Japanese ? Casual phrase 1) だいじょうぶ　daijoubu That’s ok ２）問題ないよ mondai nai yo No problem ３）気にしないで ki ni shinai de Any time Formal phrase ４）いえいえ　ieie (This basically means, "Not at all." It is a commonly used phrase; "No" is simply repeated twice, but because it's uttered very fast, the vowel "i" becomes short. So, instead of "Iie, iie", it becomes "Ieie".) No problem 5）どういたしまして douitashi mashite You’re welcome 6) かまいません　kamaimas

    How to use が

    Many people have very vague understanding of the difference between「は」and「が」. So let me explain when we use「が」: 1) As topic marker 2) With question words 3) For emphasis 4) Used in place of 「を」 5) Used in subordinate clauses 1) As a topic marker 「は」 is used to mark something that has already been introduced into the conversation, or is familiar with both the speaker and the listener (proper nouns, generic names, etc.) 「が」 is used when a situation or happening is just noticed
