Read the text to find out what factors the use of greetings, introductions and forms of saying good-bye depend on.
Greetings:
The language of greetings in English depends mainly on the situation the speakers are in and the relationship they have with the people they are talking to. In official situations (business meetings, official receptions, and conferences) such greetings as Good morning!, Good afternoon!, and Good evening! Are used. But people who know each other generally say: Hello!
After the greetings, British people usually say: How are you?. The answer usually is: Fine, thank you! And how are you?. Another possibility is: Not to bad. I’m glad to say. When greeting close friends,” Hi!” is quite possible. In fact, “Hi!”, is an abbreviation of “hiya” which in turn is a corruption of “How are you?”. While common enough as a casual, informal greeting, especially among young people, “Hi!” would certainly not be considered correct use in any formal situation. It is better to say “Hello!”. As is known “Hello!” is comparatively recent in it’s generally use, dating back to the invention of the telephone.
