swaagat hai Explanation: literally, "you are welcome". But is never said in response to a 'thank you' in Hindi. It is used to ask the guests or any member of the family who has been out for long to come inside the house. Is used both in formal and informal setting. |

Aapka swaagat hai Explanation: Well, 'welcome' or 'you're welcome' would be translated as 'aapka swaagat hai' but it is never used in Hindi/Gujarati as a reply to 'Thanks'. You don't really wish a friend 'welcome' in that kind of way in either Hindi or Gujarati. This is a matter which deals with cultural difference. If someone says 'Thanks' or 'Dhanyavaad', then you just smile or make a similar gesture or utter speak some phrase akin to 'it's all right'. If there are further queries, let me know, Regards Roomy |
