How to reply to "Thank you"

Hi dear teachers,

Today, I'd like you to help me with "how to reply to 'Thank you'".
When someone says 'Thank you' to us, in what possible ways we could reply to them?

for eg, we could say:

- "mention not!" or "no mention" or "Please, don't mention it!"
- "Oh! it was nothing!"
- "It's okay!" or "it's alright."

Dear teachers, could you please tell me if there are any other ways to reply to 'Thank you"?

Thank you Emotion: smile

Please, don't mention it! Oh! it was nothing! Fine.
It's okay! It's alright! More likely to be responses to an apology.

You're welcome!

My pleasure!

Any time!
No problem/ not a problem!
Sure!

In many contexts, 'thank you' does not require any reply at all.

For example, when the cashier in a store gives me my change, I say 'Thank you' and do not need any response from him or her.

The conventional reply is "You're welcome."
