When you express "Thank You" in the English Language,  you are told "Welcome." In the Yoruba language/culture, when you are greeted "E se" (to someone older than you) or "O se" (for your contemporary), in an expresssion of gratitude for a good deed or gift, the giver says "Ko to pe" (more or less, "it's nothing" or "A ki ndupe ara eni" (we don't say thank you to "one's 'person'". But then, if that beneficiary fails to express gratitude, it will be said that the person is "alaimore" (someone who does not know how to show gratitude). Do you have the equivalent of "Welcome" in your language? Or, does anyone know what the equivalent of "Welcome" is in Yoruba language? And, why shouldn't a good deed be appreciated with a simple "Welcome." Could it be said that the "Ko to pe" or "A ki ndupe ara eni" is hypocritical or it is just good enough? It will be nice to know your views.

One must return a gesture.its good, I prefer a ko to pe

nothing wrong with ko tope or the other one.

ko tope's english equivalent is dont mention.

it's just simple courtesy, so what's the big deal.
