VOCABULARY: GREETINGS, FAREWELLS AND SPECIAL EXPRESSIONS
* GREETINGS: SAYING HELLO
When we are introduced to a stranger in a formal situation, we usually shake hands and say
hello, or perhaps hello, nice to meet you. In an informal situation, we usually just say hello or
hi.
When we greet friends, there are no real rules.
We usually say things like this:
A: Hello. How are you? B: Fine, thanks. How about you?
A: Hi. How’s it going? / How are things? B: Not so bad, thanks. And you?
* SAYING GOOD BYE: FAREWELLS:
To someone we have just met for the first time we can say Goodbye. Nice to meet you.
With friends we can say bye, cheers, take care, or see you.
When we say goodbye to a friend on a Friday afternoon we usually say:
A: Have a nice weekend.
