BEGINNING OF CONVERSATION

                             GREETING PEOPLE

Today we are going to talk about the most manner topics that are greeting people.
I have observed that some people are getting confused about what they should say first when they meet someone. It differs according to the time, occasion, age, and the relation between them. And starting the conversation with a greeting gives a good flow to the conversation and it is the best way to initiate any important talk.
It is the basic manner. Whenever you are coming or leaving the place you should wish your colleagues. Every country is having a different way of wishing or saying hello to another person in their own way. Greeting with a smile will just be like the cherry on the top. It does not matter where you belong. Try it.
