6. Greeting Expressions
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”.
“How do you do?” or “Pleased to meet you”.
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.
“How do you do?” isn’t really a question, it just means “Hello”.

8. Informal Greeting Expressions
“Hey” or “Hi”
You can use “Hey” and “Hi” to greet someone instead of
“Hello”. 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.
How’s it going?, What’s up?, How’s everything?, How’s life?,
Good to see you.
These casual greetings are used with friends, co-workers,
family or with someone you see regularly.
