In recent years, you re welcome seems to have gone out of favor, replaced by no problem, no worries or uh huh.
“No problem!” “No worries!” “Anytime!” “Of course!” “Sure thing!” “Uh huh!”
These are some of the many ways people commonly respond to “thank you.” But what happened to the classic “you’re welcome”?
Over the years, American etiquette experts, baby boomers and writers have lamented the apparent decline in the use of the phrase “you’re welcome” in everyday conversation.
But the reasons for the decline do not necessarily come from a place of rudeness, nor is “you’re welcome” simply another thing that millennials are bent on “killing.” In some ways, it comes from a desire to be more considerate.
