The word you're looking for is "likewise". Here's an example: Person A: It was a pleasure meeting you 🤝 Person B: Likewise :) I hope my answer helps

'Mutually' is definitely wrong. If you said that to someone you've just met, they would be confused. The word exists, of course - I'm guessing that you found it in a dictionary when you were looking for a translation from an equivalent word in Russian - but that isn't how we use it in English. 'Mutually' is an ordinary adverb which has to be part of a sentence, for example, "The two diplomats negotiated a solution which was mutually acceptable." It cannpt stand alone in a conversation. The word you were trying to find is 'Likewise'. If someone says something to you and you want to say "Yes, it's the same for me" or "Yes, I think that, too", you can respond by simply saying 'Likewise'. It's a little short, which can come over as cold or casual, depending on the circumstances. But if you say it in a genuine way, with a smile and some eye contact, it's perfectly polite. Otherwise you can say either 'Nice to meet YOU' (with the emphasis on the 'you') or 'Nice to meet you, too'. I hope that helps.

Answers will vary on country. 'Likewise' is US English. At least, you only hear it rarely where i am (Australia) Our common response to "Nice to meet you", is "You too" or "Same to you".

You’re right — “mutually” sounds cold formal, and foreign. “Likewise, I’m sure” would sound cold, formal, and like you’re in an old movie ;) “Same here” would probably sound cold and informal. So, what *should* you say? You could simply return the same phrase, but with the emphasis on the new information “nice to meet *you*!” Or you could say something like “it’s *my* pleasure!” More formally, you could say “the pleasure is mine.” There are lots of options, but regardless of what you say, your tone of voice is what will convey the message.
