Generate the answer for a given question. The question requires common knowledge of English. Make sure that the answer is in detail, long, consistent with the context, and requires general knowledge of English. To be less repetitive, please vary your language for each question. Give a proper explanation to answer, and if necessary, provide the definition of various terms. And conclude your answer if it's long. If you have used other resources (e.g., Merriam Webster's.) to answer the question, include citations in your answer. You don't need to paraphrase the context of your resources, but make sure that your answer is consistent and complete.

Q: What should be your response when your boss thanks you for using his own resource allotted to you and you respect your boss and cannot respond him like It's ok or you're welcome.

A: Some appropriate responses would be: 'My pleasure.' 'Don't mention it.' 'You're [most] welcome.' 'I'm glad I could help/be of help.' 'Oh [no], thank you! Always at your service.' 'It was not a problem at all. [I'm] glad I could be of assistance.' And, of course, you could use 'sir' or 'ma'am' to make your response even more polite.

Q: I was laying in bed or lying in bed?.

A: According to Google NGrams, 'lying in bed' is much more common. 'To lay' is a transitive verb. It can be reflexive - 'I lay myself', 'I am laying myself', 'I was laying myself' - but it requires an object noun. 'To lie' by contrast is intransitive. It is an indicator of state, not action. Thus, your statement, which indicates your state in the past perfect, should use this verb and not 'lay'. If 'I was laying in bed', the connotation is that I was in the act of laying something in that bed, and the sentence is not proper unless that object is either stated explicitly or inferred by context; it can range from the innocent reflexive ('I was laying myself in bed') to the innocent transitive ('I was laying my infant daughter in bed') to the sexual ('I was laying my girlfriend in bed') to the absurd ('I was laying eggs in bed').

Q: When it comes to cities and boats named after saints, it seems that 'Santa' is always female and 'San' is always male. e.g. Male Saints: San Diego, San Francisco, San Antonio Female Saints: Santa Barbara, Santa Maria So why isn't 'Santa Claus' a woman like all the other 'Santa's?.

A:
The city names you quote are all derived from Spanish, where 'San' (or 'Santo', as @tchrist clarifies below) is the male inflection and 'Santa' the female one. However, Santa Claus isn't derived from Spanish, but from Dutch, where it was originally rendered as Sante Klaas, and was modified to Santa when it was adopted into English (and from English, to the rest of the world). Here's Etymonline's take on it: from dialectal Dutch Sante Klaas, from Middle Dutch Sinter Niklaas 'Saint Nicholas,' English, like all other languages, borrows words from many sources, and they often carry over remnants of their original grammar or usage, even when it makes for inconsistent usage in English.
