{{About|the English phrase "no problem"||No Problem (disambiguation){{!}}No Problem}}

No problem is an English expression, used as a response to thanks (among other functions). It is regarded by some as a less formal alternative to "you're welcome", which shares the same function. It is similar to the Australian English expression no worries. The phrase is used in most of the United States, especially on the East Coast of the United States.{{citation needed|date=December 2016}}

Some older people find the expression, particularly when employed in the service industry, to be rude, implying that a reasonable request could have been received as problematic or unwelcome. However, in the culture of younger Americans, "no problem" is often used as a more conversational alternative to the classic "you're welcome".

It is widely believed that younger speakers especially favor "no problem" over "you're welcome", and empirical research has corroborated this belief.[1]
