English Greeting - Basic

Greeting - Basic



There are many ways to greet someone. We'll learn about the most common way to greet someone in this lesson. I'll give a variety of example sentences.



Greeting someone you never met:"Hi, my name is Steve. It's nice to meet you."



You can respond to this by saying,"It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Jack."



Another common question to ask is"What do you do for a living?"



You can respond to this by saying, "I work at a restaurant."


"I work at a bank."


"I work in a software company."


"I'm a dentist."


Usually, you will not need to ask for a name. It is implied that each person should say their name. But in case they don't, you can ask, "What is your name?"



Many times, I don't hear the name. If you would like for them to repeat their name, you can say,"What was that again?"


"Excuse me?"


"Pardon me?"
