HELLO-GOOD BYE



How are you today? Are you ok? I hope so! Are you happy? I hope so! In today’s lesson we’re going to talk all about saying “hello” and “goodbye”. When we first meet someone whether it is a person we know or someone we are meeting for the first time, we will normally use a simple sentence as a way of greeting them. A greeting Is a friendly way of opening a conversation, or as a way of letting  the other person know that we have seen them. There are many ways to say hello. ‘hi’ ‘hello’ ‘hi there’ ‘hello there’ ‘hey. How are you doing?’ ‘howdy friend’ (USA) ‘what’s up?’ we sometimes use a double greeting for example ‘Hi there, hey how are you doing?’ if you are meeting someone for the first time you can say ‘good to meet you’ ‘it’s a pleasure to meet you’ . These sentences are often used after the other person has been introduced to you. If you are meeting someone you have not seen or heard from for a long time, then you can show real surprise and shock. ‘Oh my god, it’s you!’. If you are in a hurry there may only be a short time in which to make your greeting. ‘Hi sorry, I can stop’ this type or greeting is common these days because we are all in such a big hurry to get some place fast! We sometimes use the word ‘hello’ as a way of showing surprise or as a way of expressing a sudden interest in something. ‘Hello, what’s going on here?’ here in the UK, will often greet each order by talking about the weather. ‘Hello, isn’t it a lovely day?’ ‘Hello, what about this terrible weather?’ In many countries people will ask about the family. ‘Hello, how’s the family?’ In china, people will often greet each other by asking if they have eaten their lunch or dinner, or ask them where they are going. The word ‘hello’ can also be used informally as a way of expressing sarcasm or annoyance. ‘Hello, did you understand what I said?’ “Parting Is such sweet sorrow” that’s Shakespeare, that is. Saying ‘goodbye’ there are many ways to say goodbye. ‘bye’ ‘bye for now’ ‘bye-bye’  ‘so long’ ‘ciao’ ‘later’ ‘cheerio’ ‘see you around’ you will often hear me say ‘ta-ta’ at the end of my English lessons. This expression is mostly used in certain parts of the UK. It’s a friendly, fun way to say goodbye. Well I have come to the end of this lesson, so I must bid you a fond farewell until next time we meet here on the super-duper internet highway.
