PART TWO

Chapter One EVERY COUNTRY HAS ITS CUSTOMS

Dear Club members! First of all I’d like to remind you how to introduce and greet people.

 

 

Как правильно вести себя и говорить по-английски.

MEETING AND GREETING PEOPLE
How to introduce people
(in formal situations)
Mr Brown, let me introduce you to Mr Smith.
Mr Smith, meet Mr Brown, please
- How do you do, Mr Brown? - I’m pleased to meet you.	- How do you do, Mr Smith? - Pleased to meet you, too.

 

 

Meet Mr. Alexander Krasnov, please.
This is my friend Dinah O’Bryan.
- Hello, Dinah - It’s nice to meet you.	- Hello, Alexander. - Nice to meet you, too

(in informal situations)

Mary, this is Willy.

- Hi, Mary! Nice to meet you.

- Hello, Willy! Is this your first time in London?

Harold, do you know Kate?

- Yes, I think we’ve met before. Nice to see you again, Kate.

- Hello, Harold! I haven’t seen you for ages. How are you?

How to introduce yourself

(in formal situations)	How do you do?
	Let me introduce myself.
	(May I introduce myself?)
	My name is Joy Royal.
	Here's my card.

 

(in informal situations)

Hello, I am Tony McGregory.

Attention! Try to remember the names of the people who have been introduced to you. It shows your respect and interest.

How to greet people

(formal)
Good morning!	Morning!
How are you?	Fine, thank you. And how are you?
Good afternoon!	Good afternoon!
I'm glad to see you.	Very well, thank you.
How are things?	And how are you (getting on)?

 

(informal)
Hello, Jimmy!	Hi, Tony!
How are you?	Fine, thanks. And you?

Attention! 'How are you?' is not a question about your health, but part of the greeting. You shouldn't reply, 'I've got a headache' or 'I feel bad'. If you wish, you will say it later in the conversation, but not with a greeting.

How to address people

You can address people calling them by their first name, which is informal and friendly:

Hello, Joy!

Hello, Jack!

A more formal way of addressing people would be adding a title (Mr, Mrs, or Ms) to their surnames:

Mrs Britten?

Mr McMillian?

The title Mrs is used when you address or speak about a married woman.

Miss is used as a title for an unmarried woman or a girl.

Miss is also used as a title of a beauty queen.

Have you seen Miss England?

The etiquette for formal written forms of address requires the use of Ms before the name which is pronounced as [miz].

 

Dr. (doctor) is used as a title for medical doctors and those who have the highest university degree.

Do you know Dr. Brown?

Prof. (professor) is also used as a title:

Let me introduce Prof. Johnson to you.

HOW TO ADDRESS PEOPLE IN BUSINESS LETTERS?

If you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to, begin with

Dear Sir

or Dear Sir/ Madam

or Dear Sirs

In American business correspondence ‘Gentlemen’ is used when the name of the addressee in unknown.

If you know the name of the person you are writing to, begin with

Dear Mr Stevenson

Dear Mrs Jones

Dear Ms BlakIt’s becoming more frequent to address women as Ms in business letters, whether you know they are married or not.

 

Chapter Two POLITENESS COSTS LITTLE, BUT YIELDS MUCH Good afternoon, dear friends! Today I’m going to tell you how to ask people to do things and how to thank them for what they have done. The requests below are listed in order of politeness.

 

Requests
	Help me, please! Will you help me, please? Could you help me, please? Would you help me, please?
	Do you think you could do it, please? I wonder, if you could do it again.
	Do you mind my smoking? Would you mind telling me about the schedule?
	Will you be soo kind as to come a little earlier? (very formal) Would you be soo kind as to come a little earlier? (very formal)

 

How to Answer a Request
The British don’t like to refuse in a direct way. They usually give an excuse so as not to hurt other people’s feelings. These excuses are sometimes called ‘little white lies’.
If you agree to meet a request you should say:	If you refuse to meet a request you should say:
Yes, certainly. Yes, of course. Sure. I’d be glad to. Why, yes, of course. By all means. With pleasure. All right. OK.	I’m awfully sorry, but you see... I’d like to say yes, but... I’d really like to help you, but... I’m afraid, I can’t. Sorry, I can’t (do it). I’m sorry to say ‘no’. I wish I could do it, but…

 

As you see there are different ways of expressing requests. The choice of an appropriate request depends not so much on what you are asking for, but who you are asking to do something for you and where it takes place. For instance, when you ask for things in shops, booking-offices, etc., it’s quite polite to say only what you want followed by please.

Five of those bananas, please. Two singles to Oxford, please.

If you are sitting down, for example in a restaurant, you should say more than just... please. In this situation the British normally say:

Could I have..., please? Could you give me... please?

Without such a beginning the above request sounds rather aggressive. But even with a polite beginning the phrase requires please at the end. If you don’t use it when you ask for something, you can easily upset people. Do you know that please is used at the end of requests:

Will you open the window, please?

at the beginning of invitations and written notices:

Please, sit down. (an invitation) Please, keep off the grass. (a notice in the park)

Normally please is not used in the middle of the sentence unless you are annoyed and want to show it. It might happen when the speaker is asking for the second time and pronounces please with a heavy stress.

Could you, please, do it.

Answering a request with only Yes or No can sound rather rude. People might think that you are ‘difficult to talk to’. It is more common to say a little more:

Would you come a little earlier? - Yes, please. Could you help me with the luggage, please? - Yes, certainly. Will you do it now, please? - No, I’m afraid I can’t. You see... Could you stay a little longer? - I’m sorry to say ‘no’. I’ve got to leave.

Adding an extra piece of information to Yes and No is appropriate when you answer all kinds of questions, not only requests:

Did you go to the cinema yesterday? - No, I didn’t, I was too busy. Are you learning English now? - Yes, that’s right.

 

We all feel grateful when people help us and meet our requests. There are different ways to express gratitude.

Gratitude

for something small (less formal)	for something more important or something you didn’t expect
Thank you. Thanks a lot. Thanks. Thank you very much. Many thanks.	Thanks very much. Thank you so much. How very kind of you! (It was) very kind of you! I’m grateful (to you).

What to Say in Reply to Thanks:

Not at all.
Don’t mention it.
(You are) welcome.
It’s my pleasure.
That’s OK. (informal)

 

Chapter Three A FAULT CONFESSED IS HALF REDRESSED Good evening, dear Club members! Today I’m going to tell you what to say in English when you want to apologise and what to say in reply to an apology

 

 

Apologies	Replies to Apologies
(for something small and unimportant)
Sorry. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.	That’s alright. That’s OK. No problem.

 

 

Attention! When people say ‘sorry’ apologising for something small, they can be answered ‘sorry’. For example, if you bump into somebody:

 

You:	Sorry.
The passer-by:	Sorry.

 

More Serious Apologies		Replies to Serious Apologies
I AM sorry (stress AM) I’m extremely sorry. I’m terribly sorry. I’m awfully sorry. I’m awfully sorry, it’s my fault!		That’s quite alright. Never mind. No problem at all. Don’t worry (about it). It’s not really your fault.

When to use 'Excuse me':

1. before you disturb somebody, for example:

- Excuse me, could you tell me the way to Piccadilly?
- Excuse me, could you tell me the time, please?

2. to attract somebody’s attention when you do not know their name:

- Excuse me...!

3. after you have sneezed, coughed, etc..
