Greetings in everyday life
There are two ways to greet someone, and this depends on the degree of confidence or respect that you have to the person.
General greetings (Formal)
Formal Example:
An employee arrives late to work and greets the receptionist:
Receptionist: Hello Sr. Adams, you've come a little late.
Employee: I'm sorry about this Ms. Chambers, the traffic is horrible.
I trust that everything is well.
Receptionist: I also hope the same thing, good luck and good morning Sr. Adams.
Employee: Good morning to you Ms. Chambers.
Another little example is the phrase spoken by the character interpreted by Sergio Freire in the chilean film "Special Forces" ("3rd World Cops" in North America)
Good Morning, Good Afternoon!
General greetings (Formal)
- Hello! (¡Hola!)
- How are you? (¿Cómo estás?)
- How are you doing? (¿Cómo te va?)
- How is everything? (¿Cómo va todo?)
- How have you been keeping? (¿Cómo se ha mantenido?)
- I trust that everything is well. (Confio en que todo esté bien)
- Hi. (Hola)
- What’s up? (¿Qué tal?)
- Good to see you. (Es un gusto verte)
- How are things (with you)? (¿Cómo van las cosas?)
- How’s it going? (¿Cómo va todo?)
- How’s life been treating you? (¿Como te ha estado tratando la vida?)

"A" or "AN"?? Help me, Orange!
You must say "A" when the following word starts with a consonant
By the otrer way, you must use "AN" when the follwing word starts with a vowel

With this, you must be ready for practice with my friends:

__ midget apple
__ marshmallow
__ avocado
He is __ egg. And that is __ box of eggs
And finally... this is __ iPhone. It's mine! But it's boring because their creator was __ apple :P
Well... it's all by today, kids. See you laters, you apples!
