How do you say your welcome in patois?

There isn't a direct translation for "you're welcome" in Jamaican Patois. However, here are some common ways to express gratitude in response to someone thanking you:

Informal:

* "No problem." - This is the most common and straightforward response.

* "A right." - This literally means "it's right," implying that it was the right thing to do.

* "No sah/mam." - This is a polite response, similar to "not at all."

* "It's nothing." - This is a common way to downplay the favor.

* "Yuh welcome." - This is a more direct translation of "you're welcome," but not as commonly used.

Formal:

* "Glad to help." - This is a more formal way to express gratitude.

* "It was my pleasure." - This is a very formal way to express gratitude.

It's important to note that the best way to express gratitude will depend on the context and your relationship with the person.
