Responses All these language books teach ways to respond to "hello" or " how are you?" and they give several different possibilities. Like for "merci" you can say "de rien" " il n'y a pas de quoi" or " je vous en prie". i want to know what the absolute most common responses are, and if they all are common, when to use them. Thank you, and sorry if i'm being a bit weird with this.

Hi Evan, You're not weird, it's normal to ask you know :) Personally I always say "de rien", but it doesn't mean that I don't say "il n'y a pas de quoi" or ""je vous en prie". It depends of my mood hehe. They mean the same thing which is "you're welcome", so don't worry to know which one you have to use, you just say what you want :D
