I am struggling to write an email so instead I am doing this. What sounds more polite and/or personal to you, "No worries" or "Don't worry"?
"Don't worry", more polite and more personal
"Don't worry", more polite and less personal
"No worries", more polite and more personal
"No worries", more polite and less personal

To be clear, this is not about an objective truth, I just want to know what it sounds like to you. If you feel like it tell me your first language in the tags cause I think that has an effect.
#polls#language#linguism#my first language is german for example#and to me >no worries< feels more polite cause it's less personal to me#don't worry feels like an order with a closeness that is awkward to me#yes that is why I am struggling to write that email#to be fair sone uni profs also just have weird lines formality#some of them will get grumpy if I don't use their full title some of them just write emails that are just 'yeah sure'
