Greetings Based on Time of Day

              It is also customary to adjust greetings according to the time of day:
                Morning (from early morning to 11:59 am): “Good morning”
                Afternoon (12 pm to around 5 pm): “Good afternoon”

                Evening (5 pm to midnight): “Good evening”
                        Notes


                        “Good night” is used at the end of a conversation, rather than as a greeting.




                INTRODUCING YOURSELF AND OTHERS

              Introductions are used to share information about ourselves or others to those who are unfamiliar. When
              meeting someone new, introduce yourself by sharing your name and a bit of personal information, such as
              your profession, interests, or background. Maintain eye contact and smile during the introduction. Examples
              include:

                Self-Introduction: “Hello, I’m Priya Sharma. I work as a graphic designer and I love painting in my free time.”
                Introducing Others: “This is Rajesh, a software engineer. We’ve known each other since college, and he’s
                 a fantastic cook.”


               SESSION             8   Talking About Self


              When you meet someone new or need to provide personal details, you often have to introduce yourself or fill
              out forms with information about yourself. Here’s how you can effectively talk about yourself and fill out forms.
                TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF

              When introducing yourself, start by sharing your name, followed by additional details such as your occupation,
              age, residence, and interests. Use nouns and verbs to make your introduction clear.
                Nouns: Naming words for people, places, things, or ideas. Examples include Sarah, Bangalore, soccer, and
                 painting.
                 Verbs: Action words that describe what the noun does. Examples are read, enjoy, play, and dance. Verbs
                 with an ‘-ing’ ending can also function as nouns, such as swimming or jogging.

                FILLING OUT A FORM

              When filling out a form, carefully read each field and provide accurate information. Ensure your handwriting
              is clear and your spelling is correct. Common fields in a form include:
                Name: Your full name, including first name, middle name (if any), and last name.
                Date of Birth: The day you were born, usually written as day-month-year. For example, 15 August 2005.
                Address: Your complete postal address, including house number, street name, locality, and city.

                PIN Code: A numerical code assigned to your area by the postal service.
                Signature: Your handwritten name or initials.
