Greeting - Basic

here are many ways to greet someone.  We'll learn about the most common way to greet someone in this lesson.  I'll give a variety of example sentences. Greeting  someone you never met: " Hi, my name is Steve.  It's nice to meet you. " You can respond to this by saying, " It's a pleasure to meet you.  I'm Jack. " Another common question to ask is " What do you do for a living? " You can respond to this by saying,  " I work at a restaurant. " " I work at a bank. " " I work in a software company. " " I'm a dentist. " Usually, you will not need to ask for a name.  It is implied that each person should say their name.  But in case they don't, you can ask,  " What is your name? " Many times, I don't hear the name.  If you would like for them to repeat their name, you can say, " What was that again? " " Excuse me? " " Pardon me? "
