Hello Mr. Alan,
Thanks for your topic, it's exciting.
My friends found me very sociable, I like communicating with people. I agree with you, the phrases 'Good morning','Good afternoon' and 'Good evening' are used more to group of people or to someone who is elder or to strange one. It's fact that I always finish my talk and letter with a phrase 'Take care'. I think you're right.

Can I ask you? -to work aren't a friendly lot.- How do you think, should be there an article in this part? If it is so, why?

Thanks
Take care
Ruzihon

Greeting Expressions

Good Afternoon Dear Alan Townend,

First, I would like to comment on the listening text of course it is a flow chart and the speech is clear and loud. But as second language learner it is a bit difficult to catch up for a time I have to repeat several times then I could understood.

Second point greeting expressions: A variation of the word also crop up in the word cheerio which is a friendly way of saying good-bye! It means the word crop up might be says same as cheerio but, well know that are the archaic words of course are common useful.

Do not keep a good word down! Is this means typically or daily useful word?

When and How might be the appropriate use of "Hi" and "Hello"? Then the ignorance of saying hi and hello. What does stand for or means of these? Seeing you here addressing with a neighbour this is really for a learnt person. I am saying this because informality is applies with the people that are well know. Say for instance family members and the people you usually share part of life together except those who are raised in a high ranks for instance: Tutor, solicitor, doctor, police officer and so and so. I would like also to know the dangerous sign of saying see you later!

These are some expressions that I do not get it: Cut them dead.
A close runner up.
A stroll through the Gobi desert.

Regards,
Robert

The speach was more than fast.My main problem, when I listen English in many cases the two words sounds me like one, and I can't understand.I often can not recognize one word if spoken so fast. I understand meaning of this esey but nothing more. I listened three times but without progress. I think that I wouldn't even recognize when I listened to ten times.Even with use the dictionaries I have a problem. all of the aboves shows that I have to learn step by step.
BE MUCH WELCOMED.

Dear Alan,

I really like your "Well, hello" essay. Now, I know how to use the appropriate greetings expressions for any of situations. Oh, I hope so. Moreover, your essay also helps me to discover part of beautiful cultures of your country.
"Are you sociable?" - I am a shy person. If I meet a stranger, it is difficult for me to start the conversation. However, if I have got a good listener, I might have chance to become a talkative. So I am not sociable, am I?
Thank you again for your interesting essay.

Cheers
Co May
