美國人的邏輯

Americans are very informal.They greet each other informally.When they see dose friends,teachers ,or someone they know only by sight,they are likely to say"Hi" in all cases.This doesn't mean they have no more regard for friends than for unfamiliar people.It only means "Hi" serves as a greeting for people.

美國人非常不拘小節(jié)。他們互相問候是很不正式的。當他們看到朋友、老師或者面熟的人，他們可能在任何情況下都說“Hi”。這并不意味著他們對不熟悉的人比對朋友還要關(guān)心。只意味著“Hi”是用來問候別人。

But some Americans often expect people from other countries to be very formal if they are polite people.So,an American may be shocked if a foreigner is very informal with him or her.Sometimes it is difficult to know what to do!

但是一些美國人經(jīng)常認為其它國家的人非常正式，如果他們很有禮貌。所以，美國人可能會很震驚，如果一位外國人對他或她很正式。有時候，很難了解他們在做什么!

介紹與打招呼

Do you know the difference between greeetings and introductions? Let me tell you.Whenever you say hell to someone, whether you are already good friends with them or not,that is a greeting.Usually we greet people many times a day.But when you don't know someone,and you first learn that person's name and something about him,that is called an introduction.So usually all introductions are greetings,but not all greetings are introductions.

你知道問候和介紹的區(qū)別嗎?讓我告訴你吧。無論什么時候你和某個人打招呼，不管你們是否是好朋友，這就是問候。通常我們一天要打好幾次招呼。但是當你不認識某個人，你第一次知道那個人的名字和一些關(guān)于他的事，那就是介紹了。所以，所有的介紹通常都是問候，但是不是所有的問候都是介紹。
