formal and informal greetings

A formal and politer way to greet during a job interview may be...

• Hey there!

• Good afternoon. It is nice to meet you.

• What's up bro?

• Howdy!

Imagine that you are invited to a casual reunion with your friends and you arrived late. You want to say hello casually so you say...

• Hey Guys! How's everything?

• Hello.

• Pleasure to meet you.

• What's up guys?

Informal greetings can be used when...

• You have a job interview.

• you have to talk with your boss.

• you talk with friends and family.

• meeting new costumers.

Howdy is an expression that can be used as an abbreviation of:

• How is everything?

• How are you doing?

• How is life?

Formal Greetings are used when...

• Chatting with a friend.

• You hang out with friends.

• You talk cassually.

• You want to keep a formal tone in the conversation.

If you are attending an important and formal meeting before 12:00 pm you should greet by saying:

• Good morning!

• Good afternoon!

• Good evening!

If you are attending an important and formal meeting after 6:00 pm you should greet by saying:

• Good morning!

• Good afternoon!

• Good evening!

Imagine you haven't seen your friend in a long time. When you meet again, you may say...

• Good evening!

• It's been a while!

• Morning!

• Good afternoon.

Can we use feelings to answer "How are you"? or " How are you doing"?

• Yes!

• Nop!

Why is the expression "Good night" not considered a greeting?

• Because Good evening sounds better.

• Because it is used as a farewell to say goodbye instead.

• Actually, you can use it anyways.
