                       Formal greetings or what is also often referred to as business greetings. In

               formal situations such as meetings, speeches, and presentations, as well as other

               formal  situations,  formal  greetings  will  be  used.  Apart  from  the  situations

               mentioned earlier, when talking to older people and also foreigners we also use

               formal greetings. This is important to note to avoid any misunderstanding. Isn't it
               funny if someone thinks you are not polite just because you use the wrong greeting


               when greeting?
