Incorrect: Using koi baat nahin only as you're welcome and never for delays

Same phrase covers both kindness and forgiveness.

Incorrect: Hard no when you mean soft no problem

Correct: Koi baat nahin / koi dikkat nahin

These soften friction.

Good to know

कोई बात नहीं is emotional cushioning — late trains, spilled chai, small favors. कोई दिक़्क़त नहीं sounds a bit more practical. Together they keep Hindi conversations from turning sharp.
