The pleasure is on my side

[marijanna]

Hello everybody,

Could you tell me how to say "the pleasure is on my side" in Spanish?

Context: Well... like saying "I'm glad I could help" or "de nada" replying to "Thank you very much!"

Would "El placer esta a mi lado" or "de mi lado" be correct?

I will be grateful for your help!

Would "El placer esta a mi lado" or "de mi lado" be correct?

Not really, la respuesta estándar (al menos la que usamos por aquí) sería: el gusto es mio

 

[marijanna]

Alright! Muchas gracias!!!

Welcome to the forum, Marijanna.

You could also say (a bit more literal): el placer es mío (like the English: it's my pleasure). But 'a mi lado' and 'de mi lado' don't sound good to me there.

Saludos.

I've never heard "the pleasure is on my side" in English; I'd say "the pleasure is mine," which translates quite well into Spanish as "el gusto es mío" (or "el placer es mío," as blasita suggested).

De acuerdo. "The pleasure is all mine"

Okay, thanks a lot!

I was pretty sure I heard this expression in English, but then again... now that I think of it... it does sound like a calque form my native language, so I am no longer convinced it really exists
