Greetings

Greetings is an act of communication in which human beings (as well as other member of the animal kingdom) intentionally make their presence known to eachother,to show attention to,and to suggest a type of relationship or social status between individuals or groups of people coming in contact with each other.

Greetings are often,but not always,used just prior to a conversation.
Sesama teman umumnya hanya saling mengucapkan “hi”. Kemudian mereka juga sering melontarkan pertanyaan umum seperti :
>How are you?
     >How are you doing?
     >How’s it going?
     >How’s tricks ?
     >How are things ?
     >Haven’t seen you for ages
     >Great to see you again
     >How’s life ?
     >Watcha !
     >What’s up ?
     >How do you do ?
     >Good day, sir / madam !



Pertanyaan seperti ini umumnya dijawab dengan jawaban yang positif, seperti :
 1.Fine
      2.Pretty good
      3.Can’t complain
      4.Never been better
      5.Fabolous
      6.Fantastic
