<p>Although not a direct translation, &quot;沒關係/没关系&quot; or  &quot;沒問題/没问题&quot; can also sometimes mean &quot;don't worry&quot; depending on context.</p>

<p>I would say in both cases, &quot;别担心&quot;.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>别 : <em>don't</em></p>
<p>担心 <em>to worry</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>so &quot;别担心&quot; is very close to &quot;don't worry&quot; or &quot;no worries&quot;.</p>

Hmm, I'm not sure. "No worries" doesn't mean the same thing as "don't worry" -- in the OP's second example, for instance, it really just means "yes." There's no implication that anyone is actually worried, or even that they might be.

<p>I think the closest translation is 放心吧. It literally translates to "put your suspended heart down" and its contextual meaning is "no worries".</p>

<p>"No worries" in English is used as a statement expressing that the speaker regards a task / problem / setback as inconsequential, or that a task is easy to complete. For example:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>A: "You're going to be late for work."</p>
  
  <p>B: "No worries. My boss doesn't get in 'till lunchtime."</p>
</blockquote>

<p>or</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>A: "Can you have this completed by Wednesday?"</p>
  
  <p>B: "No worries."</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Is there an equivalent phrase in Chinese?</p>

I also use "no worries" to accept apologies in informal situations, for what it's worth. (E.g., "Sorry to put all of this on you." "No worries.")

First situation: 没事儿; second situation: 没问题 (no problem). In Jon's example, it would be 没事儿 as well.

For the first meaning of regarding something as inconsequential, I think 没事 could also work since it can mean "it won't be a problem".

你會遲到了！

沒事， 我的老闆中午才會到辦公室。

Or something like that. I'm not a native speaker.

so "别担心" is very close to "don't worry" or "no worries".
