SOCIAL GREETING

1. The students are able to use the pattern of the

sentence used in Social Greeting.
Learning Objectives :
2. The students are able to pronounce the words
based on Phonetics.
3. The students are able to read dialogue in correct
intonation.
4. The students are able to make conversation
practicing Social Greeting well.

1. Conversation in Context

14
 Greetings are very important when it comes to start a conversation because

some people will get angry when you don’t greet them appropriately.

Formal greetings are usually used when you are speaking with your employer, partner

business, or with people you don’t know very well; and to a person of authority. For

example, in a job interview when you greet the interviewee/employer.

Informal Greetings are used with family and friends. They could be just a ‘Hi’,

‘What’s up’, ‘How are you doing?’ or some people might hug each other especially

if they haven’t seen each other for a long time.

Let’s read the following dialogue!

1.2 Greetings in Informal Conversations:

Practice Dialogue

Anna : Tom, what’s up?

Tom : Hi Anna. Nothing much. I’m just hanging out. What’s up with

you?

Anna : It’s a good day. I’m feeling fine.

Tom : How is your sister?

Anna : Oh, fine. Not much has changed.

Tom : Well, I have to go. Nice Seeing you!

Anna : Later!

15
Maria : Oh, hello Chris. How are you doing?

Chris : I’m well. Thanks for asking. How are you?

Maria : I can’t complain. Life is treating me well.

Chris : That’s good to hear.

Maria : Good to see you again. I need to go to my doctor’s appointment

Chris : Nice seeing you.

Maria : See you later.

1.2.1 Informal Greetings:

1.2.1.1 Arriving

When we are arriving at somewhere in informal condition, for examples

meeting some one at the café, around campus even at around office when it is not on

duty.

Let’s read the dialogue.

Dialogue:

Budi : Hello, My name is Hartono

Hartono : Hi, I’m Budi, Nice to meet you Budi

Budi : Nice to meet you Hartono.

Another sentences which can be used in this situation is

 How are you?

 How are you doing?

 What’s up?, How’s it going? What’s going on? (very informal)

16
Dialogue:

Budi : How are you doing?

Hartono : Fine, thank you, and you?

Budi : Great, thanx u

Chika : What’s up?

Shella : Nothing much.

It’s important to note that the question How are you? Or What’s up? Actually

doesn’t necessarily need a response. If you do respond, these phrases are generally

expected:

How are you? / How are you doing?

The answers are:

 Very well, thank you. And you? ( formal )

 Fine / Great ( informal )

What’s up?

The answers are:

 Not much.

 I’m just ( watching TV, hanging out, cooking dinner, etc.)

1.2.2 Informal Greetings After a Long Time

17
 If you haven’t seen a friend or family member for a long time, use one these

informal greetings to mark the occasion.

 It’s great to see you!

 How have you been?

 Long time, no see.

 How are you doing these days?

Dialogue

Amir : It’s great to see you Muttaqi!

Muttaqi : It’s great to see you too

Dialogue

Budiman : How have you been?

Mutaqqi : I’ve been very busy, I just got new job a few weeks ago.

Dialogue

Shella : Long time, no see

Andini : It’s been too long! What have you been up to?

Shella : I’ve been good.

Dialogue

Budiman : Hi, Muttaqi,, How are you doing these days?

Muttaqi : I’m doing well, and you?

18
Budiman : Not bad.

1.2.3 Informal Greetings: Departing

When we leave someone, there is a greeting which always be said in informal

situation, such as follow:

 Nice seeing you!

 Goodbye / Bye

 See you later

 Later ( very informal )

1.3.1 Greeting someone when you are introduced.

Once you have been introduced to someone, the next time you see that person

it is important to greet them. We also greet people as we leave people. In English ( as

in all languages ), there are different ways to greet people in formal situations.

Introduction ( first ) Greeting: How do you do?

The question ‘How do you do’ is only a formality. In other words, the question

does not need to be answered. Rather, it is a standard phrase used when meeting

someone for the first time.

Dialogue

Budiman : Muttaqi, I’d like to introduce you to Mr. Ananta.

Mr. Ananta, this is Muttaqi.

Muttaqi : How do you do?

Mr. Ananta : How do you do?

Use these phrases to say that you are happy to meet someone when introduced for

the first time.

 It’s a pleasure to meet you.

 It’s nice to meet you.

20
Dialogue

Muttaqi : It’s pleasure to meet you.

Mr. Ananta : Me too. It was great to see you.

Use these greetings when you say goodbye at the end of the day. These

greetings are appropriate for work and other formal situations

 It was a pleasure seeing you.

 Goodbye.

 Goodnight. ( Note: Use after 8 p.m. )

Dialogue

Muttaqi : Goodbye Mr. Ananta

Mr. Ananta : Goodbye.

1.4. Greeting After An Introduction

In English, there is a greeting, once you have met someone, It’s common on

to use standard greetings, such ‘Good Morning’, ‘How are you,’ and ‘Hello’

Dialogue

Shella : Good Morning Andini

friends, but they’re often used together as parts of the border conversation, as you’ll see.

After greeting each other, they begin by asking simple personal questions. Working with

a friend or classmate, take turns practicing this role-play.

replaced with other forms such as “Can I...” and “Could I...” Many argue that “Can I...”

spoken situations.

6.1.Grammar Focus

When we discuss about the date, there are some important things that we have to

know.

6.1.1 Writing The Date in British and American English

Calendar dates can be written in a wide variety of ways in English, and the choice

often depends on formal or informal writing, personal style and whether you are writing

British or American English. Whatever the format is, In British, dates are usually written

in the order day – month – year, while in American English, they are written month –

day – year.

6.1.1.1 Writing Dates in British English

British English Date Format, day is followed by month, and month is followed

by year.

Examples

 13th November 2023

 The 13th of April 2023

 The 13th of April, 2023

52
  13 November 2023

These are all possible, The more complicated of the date style, the more formal it

is. In the later examples, the and the are optional, but if we use them, we must add both

the and of; it would be incorrect if we made only 13 th of April or the 13 April. In British

English, commas are not necessary ( although they can be used to separate month and

year, as a matter of style). If you want to add the name of the day, it should come before

the date, and should either be separated by comma or joined by the and of.

Examples :

 Sunday, 24 December 2023

 Sunday, the 24th of December, 2023

6.1.1.2 Writing Dates In American Style

In American English, the month comes before the day which means you can’t

use of and rarely use ordinal numbers ( adding st, nd, rd, th). Commas should also be used

to separate the day and year, and the name of they should come in the beginning.

Example :

 April 13

 April 13, 2023

 Sunday, April 13, 2023

6.2 The names of the Day

Days of the week are important time for us to know. Everyone knows the names of

the days of the week, but sometimes we get confused with this. We also do not

53
understand that time is measured in years, weeks, and days. So how can the students know

how important it is for us to know the names of the days of the week? The students go to

campus one day a week and one day a week is a public holiday. This weekly holiday in

India is on Sunday. All schools, universities, many government agencies, private offices,

etc. will be closed on this day. So it is important for all the students to know the names of

the days sequence.

6.2.1 7 Days of Week Name :

The names of the days of the week in English are taken from the Roman calendar’s

names of the planets. Sunday is called the Sun, Monday is called the Moon, Tuesday is

called Mars, Wednesday is called Mercury, Thursday is called Jupiter, Friday is called

Venus, and Saturday is called Saturn. The names of the days of the week in some other

languages are drawn from other sources, such as the Norse gods or the Hebrew calendar.

The days of the week, for example, are called after the Norse gods Thor, Odin, Tiw,

Woden, Freya, and Saturn in German.

Tablet Versus Book Before Bed Time

the text correctly.
2. The students are able to understand the text.
Learning Objectives 3. The students are able to speak in answering the
questions from the text well.
4. The students are able to make dialogue with their

8.1 Tablets Before Bed Time

People who read from a tablet before going to sleep felt less sleepy and had

different electrical activity in the brain during sleep than those who read from a

physical book, a recent study found. But the time it took to fall asleep and time spent

sleeping were similar under booth conditions.

66
 ‘Since light has an alerting effect, we predicted a lower sleepines in the tablet

condition at bedtime compared to the book contition, said lead author Janne Gronli of the

University of Bergen in Norway. But it was surprising that the tablet light did not delay

the start of sleep, she said.

Participants

The study included 16 non-smokes aged 22 to 33 who were familiar with tablets

and had no sleep, medical or psychiatric disorders. For a week before the study began,

they were instructed to keep to a regular sleep-wake schedule and to stay in bed at least

as long as they needed to sleep. During the study, in which participants slept in their own

beds, the researchers recorded three nights of sleeping patterns: one to collect a baseline

or how a person slept, one night of reading from a tablet for 30 minutes before turning

out the light, and one night of reading a book for the same amount of time. On the night

they read from a book, the participants used an ordinary reading light in their bedrooms.

The sleep pattern recordings, including measurements of brain electrical activity,

provided data on total sleep time, sleep efficienty, and the percentage of time spent in

each sleep stage. Other aspects of sleep quality during the time between lights off and the

start of sleep were also recorded, as well as the time before the first period of REM ( rapid

eye movement ) sleep.

67
 A light meter measured illumination at eye level while the participants were

reading either the tablet or the physical book. Illumination was about twice as high while

reading from a tablet compared to the book, and the tablet emitted a high level of blue

light, the researchers noted. Participants said they felt sleepier when reading the physical

book. After reading from the tablet, recordings showed delayed and reduced brain wave

activity, representing deep sleep compared to when the participants had been reading from

a book. Bedtime and the time at which people got up the next day were similar in both

conditions, with an average sleep duration of slightly less than eight hours.

8.2 Read the story and answer the following questions

1. Why do people read from a tablet going to sleep felt less sleepy than reading

from a physical book?

2. Can you explain the procedure of the study why do people read from a tablet

going to sleep felt less sleepy than reading from a physical book!

3. When the best time do you think reading a tablet?
