How do we greet people?
When meeting someone for the first time, it is usual to shake the person's right hand with your right hand.People who do not know each other generally do not kiss or hug when meeting.When you first meet someone, it is polite not to talk about personal matters.Many Australians look at the eyes of the people they are talking with.They consider this a sign of respect, and an indication that they are listening.Do not stare at the person for a long time.You can address a new acquaintance using their title and family name.You may use their first name when they ask you to or use it in the introduction.In the workplace and among friends, most Australians tend to be informal and call each other by their first names.1.Hello!/ Hi!你好！
