Greetings are used to say hello in English. It's common to use different greetings depending on
whether you greet a friend, family or a business associate. When you meet friends,
use informal greetings. If it's really important, use formal greetings. Formal greetings are also
used with people you do not know very well. Greetings also depend on whether you are saying
hello, or you are saying goodbye. Learn the correct phrases using the notes below, and then
practice using greetings with the practice dialogues.

Notes
Greeting someone when you are introduced.
Once you have been introduced to someone, the next time you see that person it is important to
greet them. We also greet people as we leave people. In English (as in all languages), there are
different ways to greet people in formal and informal situations.
Introduction (first) Greeting: How do you do?
The question 'How do you do' is only a formality. In other words, the question does not need to
be answered. Rather, it is a standard phrase used when meeting some for the first time.
Tom: Peter, I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith this is Peter Thompson.
Peter: How do you do?
Mr. Smith: How do you do?
Use these phrases to say that you are happy to meet someone when introduced for the first time.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
It's nice to meet you.
Greetings after an Introduction: How are you?
Once you have met someone, it's common to use standard greetings such as 'Good Morning',
'How are you?' and 'Hello'.
Jackson: Hi Tom. How are you?
Peter: Fine, and you?
Jackson: I'm great.

INTRODUCING MYSELF.
There is a saying that if you want something to be done well, do it yourself. So, I
am following this wise saying and would like to introduce myself. My first name is Firuz,
my family name is Nazarov and my second name is Nuralievich. But in the beginning, I
would like to represent my family and parents. Actually my family isn't large. My family
consists of my father, mother, sister and cat Boris. My father's name is Nurali. He is 43
years, but he looks much younger. He is a businessman. My dad is a well- educated and
well-read person; he has experiences in many fields. That is why it is always interesting to
communicate with him, he usually tells many exciting stories, of course, if he has free
time. And my mother is 42. Her name is Oydina. She is a good-looking, blond woman.
She has large brown eyes. I admire her character. She is an optimist; she is full of energy
and enthusiasm. I really adore her sense of humour. She is a housewife. It takes her much
time and power to take care of our home. But I can assure, she copes with her job very well.
Besides, both my farther and I help her with the housework. When I was a child, my fath er
involved me in stamp collecting. Since that time, stamps and ancient coins have become my
hobby. We have a huge collection of stamps and coins.
I am very lucky that I have got such wonderful parents and, of course, I love them
very much. Now, I think, it is time to speak about myself. My name is Firuz. I am 20. I am
tall and not bad built. I have an oval face and large green eyes. Speaking about my character,
I can say that I'm friendly, kind, generous and honest. I do not like falsehood. I have my
own likes and dislikes. I am modest and sometimes shy, but do not advice someone tricking
or kidding me. But in spite of all these characters, I can keep secrets; I never let my friends
down. I usually say, what I think, that is why people around me often take offence. For me it
is very difficult to cope with people who have such features of character as egoism and
dishonesty.
