We always meet different kinds of people in life. Our level of interaction with everyone is different. Therefore, it is important to know how to greet and talk to different types of people. Beginning with people at home: At home, you can wish your parents Good morning after you wake up. It could even be in your native language in case you are more comfortable talking that way.
At school, when you meet your teachers at any time of the day, you must wish them. If you are not sure about the time, then just wish them a good day. This habit will make you more of a cheerful person and help you become better with people. Everyone likes to be around cheerful people.
If you are seeing someone after a very long time, then you must first inquire about their well-being. These are basic polite manners. When you make this a practice, people will automatically start talking to you more. You will notice that you have become a more cheerful person that what you were
