GREETING
Greeting is an act of communication in which
human beings intentionally make their presence
known to each other, to show attention to, and to
suggest a type of relationship or social status
between individuals or groups of people coming in
contact with each other.
Greetings can be expressed both audibly and
physically, and often involve a combination of the
two. A greeting can also be expressed in written
communications, such as letters and emails.
Greetings are often, but not always, used just prior
to a conversation.
