SEMESTRUL 1

GREETINGS

The usual way of greeting someone is to say Hello. You can add

How are you? or another comment or question.

Modul obinuit de a saluta pe cineva este de a spune Hello. Poi s

adaugi How are you? sau alt comentariu sau ntrebare.

Note that the greeting How do you do? is used only by people who met each other for the first time.

De remarcat este c forma de salut How do you do? este folosit doar de ctre oamenii care se ntlnesc pentru prima dat.

A more informal way of greeting someone is to say Hi or Hiya.

O forma mai neoficial de a saluta pe cineva este de a spune Hi sau

Hiya.

If you meet someone in a place where you do not expect to see, you can say Fancy seeing you here.

Dac ntlneti pe cineva ntr-un loc n care nu te atepi s-l vezi, poi s

spui Fancy seeing you here.

When you greet someone formally, the greeting depends on the time of the day. You say Good morning until about one oclock, Good afternoon from about one oclock until six oclock and Good evening after six oclock. You can make these expressions less formal by writing

Good. You say Good night only when you are leaving someone in the evening or you are going to bed. You do not use Good night to greet someone. Good day is formal and old-fashioned in British English, but more common in American English and Australian English. Welcome used to greet someone who has just arrived is quite formal.

Cnd salui formal pe cineva, salutul depinde de momentul zilei. Spui Good morning pn la ora unu, Good afternoon ncepnd cu ora unu i pn la ora ase. Poi s faci aceste expresii mai puin formale scriind Good. Spui Good night doar atunci cnd pleci de la cineva seara sau dac te duci la culcare. Nu foloseti Good night pentru a saluta pe cineva. Good day este formal sau demodat n engleza britanic, dar este mai obinuit n engleza american i australian. Welcome folosit pentru a saluta pe cineva care tocmai a aprut este ct se poate de formal.

There are particular expressions used to give someone good wishes on special occasions. At Christmas you say : Merry Christmas or Happy Christmas, at New Year, Happy New Year, at Easter, Happy Easter. You reply by repeating the greeting, or saying something like And a happy Easter to you too or And you!. If it is someones birthday, you can say Happy Birthday or Many Happy Returns. When someone says this, you can reply by saying Thank you.

Sunt expresii specifice folosite pentru a ura cuiva toate cele bune la ocazii speciale. La Crciun spui Merry Christmas sau HappyChristmas, la Anul Nou, Happy New Year, la Pati ,Happy Easter. Rspunzi repetnd salutul, sau spunnd ceva de genul And a happy Easter to you too sau And you!. Dac este ziua cuiva, poi s spui Happy Birthday sau Many Happy Returns.

You say Good bye to someone when you are leaving. If you expect to meet the other person again soon , you can say things like See you, See you soon, See you around, or Ill be seeing you. Some people say So long, Take care, Take care of yourself, or Look after yourself, when saying good bye to a friend or relative. Many speakers of American English use the expression Have a nice day to say good bye to people they do not know as friends. Cheers and cheerio are used by speakers of

British English. When you are saying good bye to someone you do not know very well, you can use a more formall expression such as I look forward to seeing you again soon or It was nice meeting you.

Spui cuiva Good bye atunci cnd pleci. Dac te astepi s ntlneti cealalt persoan curnd, poi s spui lucruri (expresii) ca: See you, See you soon, See you around sau Ill be seeing you.Unii oameni spun So long, Take care, Take care of yourself, sau Look after yourself, atunci cnd i iau rmas bun de la un prieten sau de la o ruda. Muli vorbitori de engleza american folosesc expresia Have a nice day pentru a-i lua la revedere de la oameni pe care nu-i cunosc ca i prieteni. Cheers i cheerio sunt folosite de vorbitorii de engleza britanic. Cnd i iei rmas bun de la cineva pe care nu-l cunoti foarte bine, poi s foloseti o expresie mult mai formal ca de exemplu I look forward to seeing you again soon sau It was nice meeting you.
