When people meet, they should shake hands, smile and say: I'm ... (name). Nice to meet you.

or

How do you do?

A handshake

A hug

Tap on one's back

Make eye contact with the other person

Hold the handshake for a few seconds

How are you?

- I'm fine thank you. And you?
- Not bad, thanks.

- Goodbye!. Have a nice day.
- See you this morning!

- I'm sorry I'm late.
- I'm sorry.
- Excuse me!
- Don't worry.
- That's ok.
