What is the response to danke schön?

Answer 1

There are two different answers depending on what someone is thanking you for. If someone is handing/ giving something to you the response should be bitte or bitte schön. If they are thanking you for doing something/ a favor, then the response is gern geschehen.

(The answer here before I changed it was Das tut mir leid. This is actually how you say "I'm sorry," not"you're welcome").

Answer 2

The word schön is added to Danke for emphasis. It also makes it sound a tad more polite and formal.

It's a bit like the difference between "Thanks" and "Thank you" in English.
