How to Say ‘You're welcome’ in Traditional Chinese
不客氣
bù kè qì
[bù kè qì]
💬 Usage Tip: 不 is pronounced (bú) before a falling-tone syllable, so 不客氣 is said (bú kè qì), not (bù kè qì). You'll hear the same in 不對 (bú duì).
🇹🇼 In Taiwan: 不客氣 is the standard reply to 謝謝 in Taiwan. Staff may also say 謝謝 back to you instead of "you're welcome," especially in service situations.
