　　Business Greetings and Formal Greetings

　　商务会面及正式场合

　　It’s best to begin by using formal greetings in most business situations, and then listen to how your co-workers or business partners greet you. It’s a good idea to wait until someone speaks casually with you before you speak casually with them. You may find that people will begin to use casual greetings with you over time, as you get to know each other better. Formal greetings are also used when you meet older people.

　　在正式场合最好用正式用语来开场，与合作伙伴或是同事互相问候。在对方开始用非正式用语前，最好保持用正式用语去交流。过一段时间两人间熟悉了起来，就可以用非正式的表达了。在与长辈或老人交谈时，一般也要用到正式的表达。

　　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.

　　这三句打招呼方式随具体时间而变化，记住“good night”只用在告别，等同于“good bye”，所以如果是在晚上遇见了某人，要说“good evening”而不是 “good night”。如果不是十分正式的场合，早上可以直接说“morning”。下午晚上也可以说“afternoon”和“evening”，但并不常见。

　　9. It’s nice to meet you 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. 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”.

　　这两句是正式且有礼貌的说法。第一次见面时这样说可以显得很谦逊有礼。记住这只能用在第一次见面，再次见面时要说“it’s nice to see you again”，否则对方可能会觉得你没有记住他。

　　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.

　　用于和已经见过的人打招呼，是比较正式的说法。如果有人这样问你，他们是想要知道你在上次见面以后的这段时间过的怎么样。

　　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.

　　这句说起来过于正式，所以并不常用，一些上了年纪的人还在使用。回答时可以说“I’m doing well”，有人也会回问“how do you do?”，虽然这听起来有点奇怪。
