In German, "you're welcome" means "gern geschehen" which can be translated back to "I did it gladly". So yea, I also think YW is very positive

Duolingo taught me "wilkommen" for "welcome." Is that used IRL?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, not in the context of "you're welcome". Wilkommen is only used for saying e.g. "welcome home"
