What does "no hay de que" mean?

Question

What does this mean?

Answer 1

don't mention it or you're welcome.

Answer 2

In normal English, "Don't mention it." is a reasonable equivalent/translation. If you want an excruciatingly literal translation; "there is no reason to mention it." Oddly enough, something very similar is frequently used in Mandarin, Japanese and French (with the general sense of "you have no reason to thank me").
