A greeting opens, a goodbye closes: Hello and Goodbye

Hello and Hi work at most times. Hi is slightly more informal. Use Good morning before midday and Good afternoon later in the day.

“How are you?” is often a friendly greeting, not a request for a long health report. “I’m fine, thanks” or “I’m good, thank you” is enough.

Goodbye is clear in every setting. See you sounds friendly when you expect to meet again. A short conversation can use both.

Read both roles because real speaking involves asking and answering. The goal is not to memorise one speaker only.

Keep the reply short and natural

Do not answer “How are you?” with only “Yes”. Give a short condition, such as fine or good.

Do not use Good night as an opening greeting. It usually closes the day or conversation.

Pause after the greeting. “Hello, Hina” is clearer than running both words together.
