GREETINGS
Greetings adalah sapaan atau ungkapan salam. Greetings yang mungkin
paling sering kalian dengar adalah “Hello”, “Hi”, “Good morning”,
“Good afternoon”, dan “Good evening”.  Greetings dapat dibagi menjadi
dua yaitu formal dan informal. Formal greetings digunakan untuk situasi
atau acara formal seperti rapat dan presentasi. Selain itu formal greetings
juga dipakai saat kalian bicara dengan orang yang lebih tua seperti guru
maupun orang asing yang tidak terlalu akrab dengan mu.
Contoh dari formal greetings adalah:
Formal Greetings
Ungkapan Tanggapan
Good morning/afternoon/evening. Good morning/afternoon/evening.
How do you do? How do you do.
Hello. Hello.

Berbeda dengan formal greetings, informal greetings adalah ungkapan

salam untuk berinteraksi saat suasana santai, dengan teman sebaya atau
orang yang sudah kalian kenal akrab. Contoh informal greetings adalah:
Informal Greetings
Ungkapan  Tanggapan 
Hi! Hi!
What’s up? Good. 
How is life? Not bad.
How is it going? It is going well.
Contoh Dialog Greetings
Dialog Greetings 1

Mr. Adi : “Good morning, Roy. How can I help you?.”
Roy : “I am a new student and I do not know where my class is.”
Mr. Adi : “Alright. What class are you in?”
Roy : “7.G class, Sir.”
Dialog Greetings 2
Jennie : “Hi, Ben!”
Ben : “Hi, Jennie. What is up? It has been ages since we met last time.”
Jennie : “I am good. What about you?”
Ben : “Well, nothing special. I have just finished my school and found
someone special.”
Jennie : “Oh my God! Congratulations. I am so happy for you.”

Leave taking
Leave taking adalah ungkapan pamitan/perpisahan. Ungkapan ini
berfungsi sebagai penutup percakapan. Leave taking terdiri dari dua jenis
yaitu formal dan informal. Contoh leave taking formal beserta tanggapannya
adalah:
Formal Leave Taking
Ungkapan  Tanggapan 
Nice to meet
Nice to meet you.
you, too.
Good bye. Good bye.

Nice to see you. Nice to see

Informal Leave Taking

Ungkapan Tanggapan
Bye!  Bye! 
Bye-bye! bye -bye!
See you! See you!
Good night. Good night.
Kalian tahu tidak kenapa “Good night” termasuk leave taking bukan
greetings? “Good night” dalam Bahasa Inggris dapat berarti selamat tidur
dan juga selamat tinggal. Saat kalian ingin mengatakan selamat malam
untuk sapaan, kalian dapat mengucapkan “Good evening”. Tapi, untuk
mengucapkan selamat malam saat tidur, kalian harus menggunakan kata
“Good night”. Jadi, dalam kata lain, “Good night” memiliki peran yang sama
seperti “Good bye”.
Contoh Dialog Leave Taking
Dialog 1
X : “I think I am going to go. My mom has called me several times.”
Y : “But, it is only 7 p.m. now. Can you stay for a couple more hours?”

Y : “Okay, bye.”

you, Ella.”
