    In British culture, a firm handshake is the most common greeting, along with use of first names. Close friends may hug or kiss cheeks to say hello, while others simply nod. "Cheers" is sometimes used instead of "thank you" and "goodbye," while a formal greeting is "How do you do?" and an informal one is "Hi" or "Hello". In Greek culture, common verbal greetings include "Yassas" and the informal "Yiasoo". A handshake is also standard between all people, along with direct eye contact during introductions.

    In British culture, a handshake is the most common form of greeting and

    should be firm yet not too strong, also first names are commonly used in
    social introductions. Close friends may also hug or kiss one another on the
    cheek, while others may simply offer a nod.

    They sometimes say ‘cheers’ instead of thank you and goodbye. The usual
    formal greeting is a ‘How do you do?’ and on the other hand informal
    greeting is a simple ‘Hi or Hello’.

    In Greek culture, the common verbal greeting is “Yassas” (Hello) or the


    more informal “Yiasoo”. A handshake is also common and it is exchanged
    between men, women, or even children. They also maintain direct eye
    contact when introduced to someone for the first time and If the person is
    older than you, address them by their title and last name unless invited to
    move to a first-name basis. This formality is less necessary between
    youths or friends. Meanwhile, close friends may greet each other with a
    warm embrace or a kiss on the cheek. Others might slap or pat one
    another’s arm or back a few times
