When you meet people, you use greetings to start talking. You can say “Hello” or “Hi” at any time. In the morning, people say “Good morning.” In the afternoon, they say “Good afternoon,” and at night, they say “Good evening.” When you leave, you say “Goodbye” or “Bye.” If you will see the person again soon, you can say “See you later” or “See you tomorrow.” These greetings help make conversations friendly and polite.
