9. Section 3. Passage The Way Americans Greet  Americans often greet each other simply with “Hello” or “ Hi”. They believe such an informal greeting often implies a close and friendly relationship. Similarly, Americans do not have a formal “farewell”. They will just wave “good-bye” to the whole group. Or perhaps, they will simply say “Bye”, “So long” or “ Speaking of time, I’ve got to run” and then leave. To Americans, a friendly and informal relationship is the most important thing.

10. American introductions are usually rather simple. Yet, a proper introduction will leave a good first impression upon others. In the United States, most people don’t like using Mr., Mrs. Or Miss in introductions. They find these terms too formal. They prefer first names to formal titles in most cases. For example, a gentleman may say,” Glad to meet you. I’m Paul Miller, but call me Paul.” Sometimes a woman you meet for the first time may say,” Don’t call me Mrs. Smith. Just call me Sally.” So when your American friends do not use your last name or titles, don’t feel that they have been impolite. They only want to show friendliness.

11. When you first get to know an American, he may ask you, “Where do you work?”, “Are you married?” or “ Do you have children ?” Such questions may be too personal to Europeans, but Americans do sometimes ask such questions. They would like to get answers to these questions. In this way they can get better acquainted with you and have a topic for beginning a Friendly conversation with you.
