I assumed they meant thanks but a Google search doesn’t give me that kind of result. What does dinata mean and what language is it from?

        Dunno how native speakers would do it, but usually I answer “bitte” for “danke”, “bitte schön” for “danke schön”.

        Fun fact: saying “bitte” near my cat prompts her to rub her face on your leg. All the time. I speak in German with her, and when she obeys my commands I tell her “bitte” and pet her, so now she associated the word with being petted.

      I prefer the Colombian way of saying thanks.

      “Con gusto”

      It means “With pleasure”.

    “De nada”? Which is really confusing as that is Spanish and “Danke” is from German.

      Not confusing at all. When one person decides to switch languages mid-conversation, it is common to do the same, switch to another language again.
