英美國家的人表達(dá)問候的方式與中國人不完全相同。見面時常見的問候語有g(shù)ood morning(上午好), good afternoon(下午好), good evening(晚上好), good night(晚安); hi和hello用于見面時的問候;How are you? 用于熟人之間的問候, 側(cè)重詢問對方的身體狀況如何。
另外,英美人很尊重別人的隱私,如忌諱問別人的年齡和收入等。特別要注意的是遇見女士時,更不可隨意問及年齡,否則會被認(rèn)為沒有禮貌。

M2: Well, it’s nice to see you in such good weather. What’s up?
M1: Nothing much. Same old. How are you doing these days?
M2: Just fine. I do some jogging every morning.
M1: Well, that’s why you look so healthy and smart!
