Is it correct to say "you are welcomed" or "you are welcome"?

The two phrases have different meanings.

The proper phrase, "You are welcome" says that the person is welcome to whatever you have given them.

The other phrase, "You are welcomed", which is not generally used, implies that the person is being welcomed to wherever they are, as in "we are welcoming you into this place". Notice that the sentence does not say who is doing the welcoming, only who is receiving the welcome. It's an awkward phrase and should not be used, even when you are truly welcoming someone to a particular place.

So, when someone thanks you, just say "you're welcome" and if you want to welcome them to some place, then say "welcome to my ..."

I am not much of an English scholar but I think that if "you are invited" is correct then "you are welcomed" should also be correct. It does not have to be an action of the past to use "ed".

Then again, it all depends where you are. Being raised under the British educational system, it hurts my ear when I hear someone replies to a "THANK YOU" with "YOU ARE WELCOME".

Yes

Hey! Someone in my twitter feed shared this page so I came to give it a look. I'm definitely loving the information. I'm book-marking and will be tweeting this to my followers!

In England "You are welcomed" is correct

Wonder if in UK or in USA, people will say this (You are welcome/You are welcomed) differently? Unfortunately, sometimes in using a language, when more people are using it in certain way, wrong could become right.....

If inviting some one, say into your home, then you normally use you are welcomed. When replying to a thank you, it is more acceptable to use you are welcome or you are very welcome.

It depends on the situation. If it's the more common one of "Thanks", then it is you are welcome. If it's the not so common situation of "May I come over?", then it would be you are welcomed.

I would like to narrow the question down to the question between welcome and welcomed. Let's say "all staff and students are welcome" or "all staff and students are welcomed"?

These guys are right for the most part - but the way I see it is that it should be :

you're welcome

which is of course - you are welcome - but pronounced differently.

This is correct.

I have never heard it said 'you are welcomed' welcomed would be a past tense like - you have been welcomed.

I have only heard it said, "you are welcome" or "you're welcome". I have never heard it said the other way. I think around here it is even shortened to "welcome" sometimes!

Interesting question! Good luck.
