Ditto. And my grandparents were Yugoslavian and Hungarian.

I think it’s similar to Dutch ‘alsjeblieft’ - it literally means the same thing, ‘if it please you’, and can be used for both ‘please’ and ‘you’re welcome’, when handing someone a cup of coffee or something. Bit odd that they mentioned this for the Dutch bit and not the French one, really. Edit: I can see how ‘you’re welcome’ doesn’t really fit, it’s more like ‘there you go’.

S'il vous plaît means please. You can say this also while giving something to a customer (serving a plate in a restaurant for example) but it would be translated to 'please' as well. You're welcome is 'de rien or 'je vous en prie'.

First I've heard of it. Though my French may be a bit creaky. I think I'll carry on using de rien, as Thomas says

I stumbled over this too. Shouldn't be that challenging to find out what it really means while putting this quiz together. ‘You’re welcome’ would be something like "De rien!"

No, it doesn't. Whoever wrote the quiz put the wrong definition beneath the answers.

Is it not "if you please"?

No it means please, or "if you please" more directly... "You're welcome" is "bienvenue"

record scratch for me too, no it does not mean that

I note that "Please" is now accepted as a correct answer even if it was not before, but actually it is also used in some situations where we would say "you're welcome" in English. "De rien" would never be appropriate in a service setting, more used by someone after you think them for a kindness, not served you your meal, where "S'il vous plait" could also be used as they're serving it to you, not only as a response to "merci" where yes, "je vous en prie" is more common. But it's not an exact translation and I have certainly heard it used in that way in French restaurants.

A traditional Nigerian greeting used by the Idoma in Benue State area, Abole translates roughly as “How are you?” or simply “Hello”
