1. English Greeting Expressions


Common English Greetings and Expressions
English-speaking people usually greet each other in an
informal way, so you can use these common
conversational greetings for friends, family, as well as
people you meet in casual settings.
1. Hey, Hey man, or Hi
You can use “hey” and “hi” to greet someone instead
of “hello”. Both are particularly popular among younger
people. While “hi” is appropriate to use in any casual
situation, “hey” is for people who have already met. If you
say “hey” to a stranger, it might be confusing for that
person because he or she will try to remember when you
met before! You can also add “man” to the end of “hey”
when greeting males. Some people also use “hey man” to
casually greet younger women, but only do this if you
know the woman very well. Remember that “hey” doesn’t
always mean “hello”. “Hey” can also be used to call for
someone’s attention.
2. How’s it going? or How are you doing?
These are casual ways of asking “how are you?” If
you’re trying to be particularly polite, stick with “how
are you?” but otherwise, you can use these expressions
2

to greet almost anyone. The word “going” is usually


shortened, so it sounds more like “go-in”. You can
answer with “it’s going well” or “I’m doing well”
depending on the question. Although it’s not
grammatically correct, most people just answer “good”
– and you can too. Like when responding to “how are
you?” you can also follow your answer by asking “and
you?”.
3. What’s up?, What’s new?, or What’s going on?
These are some other informal ways of asking “how
are you?” which are typically used to casually greet
someone you have met before. Most people answer
with “nothing” or “not much”. Or, if it feels right to
make small talk, you could also briefly describe
anything new or interesting that’s going on in your life,
before asking “what about you?” to continue the
conversation.
4. How’s everything?, How are things?, or How’s life?
These are some other common ways of asking
“how are you?” They can be used to casually greet
anyone, but most often they’re used to greet someone
you already know. To these, you can answer “good” or
“not bad”. Again, if small talk feels appropriate, you
3

could also briefly share any interesting news about your


life, and then ask the person “what about you?” or
another greeting question.

5. How’s your day? or How’s your day going?


These questions mean “how are you?” not just
right now, but how you’ve been all day. You would use
these greetings later in the day and with someone you
see regularly. For example, you might ask a co-worker
one of these questions in the afternoon, or a cashier
that you see at the grocery store every evening. “It’s
going well” is the grammatically correct response, but
many people simply answer with “fine”, “good” or
“alright”. By the way, notice that “good”, “fine” or “not
bad” are perfect answers to almost any greeting
question.
6. Good to see you or Nice to see you
These casual greetings are used with friends, co-
workers or family members that you haven’t seen in a
while. It’s common for close friends to hug when they
greet each other, particularly if they haven’t seen each
other in some time; so you might use this greeting along
4

with a hug or handshake depending on your


relationship with the person.
7. Long time no see or It’s been a while
These casual greetings are used when you haven’t
seen someone in a long time, particularly if you meet
that person unexpectedly. How much is a long time? It
depends on how often you normally see that person.
For example, you could use one of these greetings if
you normally see the person every week, but then
don’t see them for a few months or more. Usually,
these phrases are followed with a question like “how
are you”, “how have you been?” or “what’s new?”
8. Good morning, Good afternoon, or Good evening
These are formal ways of saying “hello”, which
change depending on the time of day. Keep in mind
that “good night” is only used to say “good bye”, so if
you meet someone late in the day, remember to greet
them with “good evening”, rather than “good night”.
Good morning can be made more casual by simply
saying “morning”. You can also use “afternoon” or
“evening” as informal greetings, but these are less
commonly used.
9. It’s nice to meet you or Pleased to meet you
5

These greetings are formal and polite. If you say


this to someone when you meet him or her for the first
time, it will make you seem courteous. Remember to
only use these greetings the first time you meet
someone. Next time you see the person you can show
that you remember him or her by saying “it’s nice to
see you again”.

10. How have you been?


This greeting question is only asked by people who
have already met. If someone asks you “how have you
been?” they want to know if you have been well since
the last time the two of you met.
11. How do you do?
This greeting is VERY formal, and quite uncommon,
but it may still be used by some older people. The
proper response is “I’m doing well” or, as strange as it
seems, some people even ask “how do you do?” right
back as an answer
12. Yo!
This extremely informal greeting is common in
America. It comes from 1990’s hip-hop slang and these
days it’s often used jokingly. This greeting should only
6

be used with very close friends, and never in a business


setting.
13. Are you OK?, You alright?, or Alright mate?
This casual way of asking both “hello” and “how
are you” is common in Britain. You can respond “yeah,
fine”, or simply “alright”.
14. Howdy!
This is a very informal abbreviation of “how do you
do?” that is common in certain parts of Canada and the
U.S. Keep in mind that if you say “howdy” outside of
these regions, you will sound like a cowboy, and it
might make the other person laugh.
15. Sup? or Whazzup?
These greetings are abbreviations of “what’s up?”
which are common among teenagers. Like with “what’s
up?” you can answer “nothing” or “not much”.
16. G’day mate!
This casual greeting is an Australian abbreviation of
“good day”. Keep in mind that Australian greetings
often use “ya” instead of “you”. So “how are ya?” is
the same as “how are you?”, and “how are ya going?” is
basically the same as “how’s it going?” or “how are you
doing?”
7

17. Hiya!
This greeting, short for “how are you?”, is
commonly used in certain parts of England. However,
you don’t need to actually answer this question – you
can just say “hey!” right back. I hope you enjoy trying
out these new English greetings. You’ll find that greeting
people in different ways will help your English sound
more natural, and it might even make English greetings
more fun and interesting for you.

For minutes 01 through 09, you can pronounce the '0'


as oh.

Example: 11:06 - eleven (oh) six

More popular way

Say the minutes first and then the hours. Use past and the
preceding hour for minutes 01 through 30. Use to and the
forthcoming hour for minutes 31 through 59, but .

Example: 7.15 - fifteen minutes past seven

Example: 7.45 - fifteen minutes to eight

16

Note

Use o'clock only at the full hour.

In English ordinary speech, the twelve-hour clock is used.

Beispiel: 17:20 - twenty past five

For times around midnight or midday you can use the


expressions midnight or midday / noon instead of the
number 12.

Beispiel: 00:00 - midnight

Beispiel: 12:00 - midday or noon

To make clear (where necessary) whether you mean a time


before 12 o'clock noon or after, you can use in the
morning, in the afternoon, in the evening, at night. Use in
the morning before 12 o'clock noon, after 12 o'clock noon
17

use in the afternoon. When to change


from afternoon to evening, from evening to night and
from night to morning depends on your sense of time.

Example: 3:15 - a quarter past three in the morning OR a


quarter past three at night

More formal expressions to indicate whether a time is


before noon or after are a.m. (also: am - ante meridiem,
before noon) and p.m. (also: pm - post meridiem, after
noon). Use these expression only with the formal way of
telling the time.

Example: 3:15 - three fifteen a.m.

It is not usual to use a.m. and p.m. with past/to.

Example: 3:15 - fifteen minutes past three OR a quarter


past three

American English

Beside past Americans often use after.

Example: 06:10 - ten past/after six

But: in time expressions with half past it is not usual to


replace past by after.

Beside to Americans often use before, of or till.

Example: 05:50 - ten to/before/of/till six
