Types of Greetings
                 There are two methods of greetings as follows:
                 Formal Greetings: You formally greet someone if you do not know the person. It is used to greet an elderly person,
                 or people with whom we have a formal relationship such as a teacher or a client. This is used more often in schools,
                 colleges, offices, meetings, etc.
                 Informal Greetings: Informal greetings are used when you are talking to friends, family or when you know the person
                 very well.

                 Introducing Yourself—Talking about ‘Self’
                 When you first meet someone, they might want to know more about you. You will need to “introduce yourself” by telling
                 them about yourself. You usually start by saying your name. Then you can talk about other things, such as what you do,
                 your age, where you live, or even things or activities that you like or dislike. For all these sentences, you will use nouns
                 and verbs.


                        Asking Questions

                 A question is a phrase or word that asks for information or is used to test someone's knowledge. We always use a
                 question mark (?) at the end of questions. In our daily interactions with other people, we often have to ask questions to
                 get information. Asking the right questions can help us get the information we want.
                 Questions that can be answered with ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ are called closed questions. This is because response options are
                 limited or closed. For example, when we asked, “Are you hungry?”, the answer can be ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
                 Sometimes when we ask a question, we expect a more detailed answer. For example, when we ask, “What do you want
                 to eat?", the answer could be: "I want to eat a mango". These are called open questions because their answer options
                 are neither limited nor closed.
