This is a preview lesson from 925English, a new series we’ll launch next year. Appropriately enough, we’re kicking off with a lesson on how to greet and say hello to colleagues and customers in English.
925English will be a new business English series for beginners (A1-2) and lower intermediate (B1) learners we’ll launch next year. 925English lessons will focus on chunks of language and English expressions that you can use in work and business. We get straight to the point with lots of examples. We give you phrases you can say in different situations and advice on why and how we use them.
So, it’s pretty easy to greet someone in English, isn’t it? We can say “good morning” or “hello” or just “hi.” And we might add something like “my name is Tim Smith,” or a question like “how’s it going?” But what’s the difference? How do we choose which greeting to use? Well, in business, like in life, it depends on the situation. That includes who we’re talking to and where we’re having the conversation. So let’s go through three situations and practice some appropriate ways of saying hello.
