你难道只会说"How are you"问好?
基本上,从初学者到英语老手,见面打招呼大多都是一句“Hi, how are you?”,然后又听到一致的回答“Fine, thank you, and you?”
每次听到这个,小编“内心都是崩溃的”……
我们一起学点其他的吧,就算不改“How are…”的格式,也别加个“You”了。
How are you?
For 4 years James said the same greeting to me, “Hello teacher, how are you?” Finally I told him, “You know James there are many ways to say hello. If you can change the way you say something you’ll improve you understanding.” The next day he saw me and walked up and said, “How are you teacher hello.”
My advice is try 2 or 3 of these new ways to say hello and never use “How are you?” again.
The best known phrase but English people don't use it every time so it's useful to learn some of the others on this page.
“I’m fine thank you, and you?”
A general inquiry about the other person's health and life. Your answer could be about your health, your work or your personal life.
“All good, thanks”
Similar to “How are things?” phrase but the 'incorrect' grammar makes it much more informal.
“Great, thanks for asking.”
Both are asking about the other person's life (work or personal life).一个让你脸红的微信:SiMi108,脸红也加额!
“I’m good, and you?”
This phrase is really asking about health but the other person may answer with general information about their life.
“I’m fine thanks.”
Really asking about what kind of activities the other person has been doing recently. It more often refers to their home life, not work.
“Not much, and you?”
Asking about health and life with a yes / no question.
“Yeah, fine.”
It’s much more informal and said between friends that see each other many times a day.
“Alright.”
It’s more formal but still sincere and friendly and is asking about the other person's health.
“Yeah, I’m good.”
Do you always use the same way to say hello?
