Opening a conversation and bringing a conversation to an end are essential parts of our everyday language. You already know how to say hello and good bye, but in this lesson you will study in more detail Americans perform these functions. In the dialogues that follow, pay attention to what speakers say to greet each other and what they say to indicate that the conversation is over. Mike : Say, Grace, how you doing? Grace : Mike! Hey, how are you? Mike : Not bad. Where you going? Grace : Over to Jerrys. How about you? Mike : Oh, I just got off work. Im so hungry, I could eat a horse! Grace : Where are you working now? Mike : J $ L Steel. Its a real pain. But I guess I couldnt complain. Lots of guys are out of work these days. Grace : Yeah, thats the truth. Well, I better let you go to get some supper. Mike : Yeah, it was great seeing you again. Maybe we could get together sometime. Grace : Sounds good. Ill give you a call. Mike : OK, great. Ill be seeing you. Grace : OK, Mike. Enjoy your meal. Mike : Thanks. Bye! Grace : Bye! Greetings in all languages have the same purpose: to establish contact with another person, to recognize his or her existence, and to show friendly. The greeting is always returned, often in the same form but with different stress. Usually people do not suddenly quit talking, say good bye, and leave each other abruptly; ending a conversation normally takes some time. This involves two kind of interaction; pre-closings and closings. Pre-closings are phrases that signal the end of a conversation; closings are phrases that explicitly end the conversation. The following is the phrases near to the top of the list are generally more formal than the ones. GREETINGS RESPONSES More Good morning. Good morning. Formal Good afternoon. Good afternoon.

INTRODUCTION
When making an introduction in any language, you need to know the formulas and rules for doing it. You also need to know what to call the participants. This lesson will help you to identify given names and surnames (last names) and to decide which form of the name is appropriate to use. You will also learn introductions are made. Read the dialogue below: (The doorbell rings. Mrs. Carr opens the door.) Mrs. Carr : Good evening, George. Come in. how have you been? George : Just fine. Thank you. How are you? Mrs. Carr : Oh, reasonably well. George : Mrs. Carr, I would like to introduce a friend of mine, if I may: Albert Douglas. Albert, this is Mrs. Elaine Carr. Albert : Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Carr. Mrs. Carr : Ive heard so much about you, Mr. Douglas. Please do come in. oh, Richie? Darling, Id like you to meet someone a friend of Georges. Mr. Carr : Oh, hello, George. Glad you could come. (He shakes hands with George.) George : Hello, Rich. It was very thoughtful of you to invite us. Mrs. Carr : Yes, darling, as I was saying, this is Albert Douglas. (to Albert) My husband, Richard. Albert : (shaking hands with Mr. Carr) Very nice to meet you, Mr. Carr. Mr. Carr : The pleasures mine. But call me Rich. Everyone does. Mind if I call you Albert? Albert : Of course not. But just plain Al will do. In making a formal introduction, one person is first presented to another. In general, subordinates are presented to superiors, men to women, younger to older. Men usually shake hands when they are introduced to other man. It is the womans choice whether or not to shake hands when introduced to a man, and the man should wait for the woman to offer her hand. If she offers her hand, shake it. Among professional women, it is becoming more and more common to shake hands.

Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone needs to know what to do and say after making a mistake. This unit focuses on apologies, and the aim is to help you know about what to say and when to say it. Read the following dialogue. (The telephone rings) Russell: Hello? Sandy : Hi, Russ? Its me. Look, were having a bit of trouble with the car, so it looks we wont be able to come tonight. Im really sorry. Russell: Oh really? What is it? Sandy : Well, its the carburetor again. We just had it fixed last week, but it must be clogged up again somehow. Russell: Well, Im sorry to hear that. Want me to come get you? Sandy : Well, actually, were stuck on the freeway and I had to walk a mile to this gas station to get help. Russell: In this terrible weather? Sandy : Yeah, Im pretty wet, I can tell you that! Russell: Look, why dont I come to pick you guys up in my car, once they tow the car to the station. Where are you at? Sandy : You know that Arco station at the entrance to the freeway? Russell: Oh, yeah, I know where that is. Ill be right down. We still might be able to catch the late show. Sandy : Ok, great. Sorry about the inconvenience. Russell: Dont worry about it. See you in a little bit. Sandy : Thanks. See you. There many different situations that require an apology, but they all have something in common: something undesirable or uncomfortable has happened. People apologize for: 1. Hurting someones feelings or causes a misunderstanding. 2. Being late for missing a meeting, class, appointment, etc. 3. Interrupting a conversation or meeting. 4. Taking someones else property by mistake. 5. Being impolite 6. Damaging another persons property. 7. Telling a secret accidentally. 8. Calling someone early in the morning or late at night. 9. Dialing a wrong number on the telephone. 10. Invading someones personal space by bumping or hitting them accidentally. The words Im sorry do not always indicate an apology. These words are also used to express sympathy, as in Im sorry to tell you that youll have to re-type this report. Mr. Lockhart cant stand spelling errors. There are still other situations in which people say Im sorry or excuse me but are not really apologizing. You can use these two expressions if you walk between two people talking in the halfway, or if you cough, burp, sneeze, hiccup, or yawn. You can also say Pardon me in a formal situation. The following is the phrases near to the top of the list are generally more formal than the ones near to the bottom.
