Forms of Address within the Family
Small children address their parents as Mummy and Daddy. When they are older (about 10-11) they often change it to Mum and Dad. As adults they usually continue to use these forms, although some people (mainly members of the upper and middle classes) use the formal Mother and Father.
Grandparents are usually addressed as Granny (sometimes Gran or Nanny) and Grandad. Grandmother and Grandfather are used by some adults (those who use Mother and Father – see above).
Aunts and uncles are addressed as Auntie and Uncle usually with the first name, for example, Auntie Mary, Uncle Richard. Aunt is often used instead of Auntie by older children and adults, particularly in formal situations.

Most greetings and responses are rather automatic and mechanical. When someone says "Hi! How are you doing?" the greeting sounds expected. It doesn't convey a real interest in knowing the person's state of health or being. And just as the greeting may seem rather automatic, often so is the response. Of course, there are many variations to these greetings and replies. In less mechanical greetings, we show concern for a person by asking about something specific, and we usually have some prior knowledge to help us form these questions. For example, "Hi, Mary. How's your new job working out?"
The reply given to your greeting may depend on how much the person wants to reveal. Tone of voice (the way our voice goes up and down to show different meanings or feelings), gestures and facial expressions sometimes reveal more than words do. It's important to know that people in Britain and America greet each other every time they meet.
