Como no? = of course
Literally it  means "how no?" Or how could the answer be no?

De nada="of nothing" or "itsnnothing"
So when you help somebody and they say thank you
Then you say "aw it werernt nuthin"

Down in costa rica they say
Con mucho gusto= "with much pleasure"
Or "i did it with much joy"
As their way of saying thanks.
