    Greetings Around the World

    Greetings are an important part of communication in every culture. In English, there are many ways to say hello depending on the time of day and how formal the situation is. In the morning, people say "Good morning" to greet each other. This is a polite and friendly way to start the day. After noon, people switch to "Good afternoon" and, in the evening, they say "Good evening."

    For casual situations, "Hi" and "Hello" are common greetings. These can be used any time of day and are more informal. When meeting someone for the first time, people often say, "Nice to meet you" or "Pleased to meet you." This shows respect and politeness.

    It’s also common to ask someone how they are doing. A simple "How are you?" is a way to show interest in the other person’s well-being. You can reply with, "I’m good, thank you," or "I’m doing well."

    When saying goodbye, people often say "Goodbye" or "See you later" for more casual situations. Phrases like "Take care" are also used to wish someone well.

    Greetings are simple but important. They help start conversations, show respect, and build connections between people.
