Greetings in Passing

    It is polite to greet a person you know. However， you don't always
have time to stop and have a conversation. Just remember to smile as you
say hello. A small wave is also polite. Sometimes you pass the same person
a second time on the same day. You can say "hello again" or just smile.

    跟認(rèn)識的人打招呼是有禮貌的體現(xiàn)，但是你們并不會每次都有時間停下來談
談。只要記住說“你好”的時候帶上微笑就行了，另外輕輕招手也會顯得很禮貌。

    有些時候你可能在同一天再次碰到這個人，那時你可以說"hello again" ，
或者僅用微笑示意。

    Tips

    ？Slow down to greet someone you know. You don't have to stop what
you are doing （walking ， working， shopping ）。

    放慢動作來同認(rèn)識的人打招呼，不必停下（腳步，工作，購物）。

    ？Smile and wave.

    微笑+ 揮手。

    Useful phrases

    ？Hello ？Hi？Good morning？Good afternoon？Good evening* ？Hey ，
John. ？How's it goin'？**

    *Good night is a farewell （goodbye ） phrase. It is NOT a greeting
to use at night time.

    "Good night." 是用來告別（再見）的短語，并不是晚間打招呼的說法。

    **Native speakers often shorten "going" to "goin" in casual greetings.

    母語者在比較隨意地問候時經(jīng)常將"going" 縮略說成"goin".

每個英語國家也有自己所流行的問候方式。
