Greetings are the first step in any conversation.

Saying hello is an important social skill.

There are many ways to greet people in American English.

The most common greeting is 'hello'.

You can also say 'hi' to friends and family.

'Hey' is another informal way to greet someone.

When you meet someone for the first time, you might say 'Nice to meet you'.

A friendly smile often accompanies a greeting.

Body language plays a role in how greetings are received.

Consider the time of day for greetings like 'Good morning'.

'Good afternoon' is used in the middle of the day.

As the day ends, 'Good evening' becomes appropriate.

Responding to a greeting is just as important as giving one.

A simple 'hello' back is usually sufficient.

Practicing these greetings will boost your confidence.
