What means this sentence " Don't mention it " ? I've heard it for many time but I don't know the meaning of it.

Hello May Thida Su,

'Don't mention it' is something we say when someone is thanking us and we want to tell them that they don't need to say thank you:

I wanted to say thank you for your help earlier.

Oh, don't mention it. I was happy to help.

Well, thank you anyway!
