“打招呼”(greeting people)通常是学习各种语言的第一课。学习汉语当然也不例外。但是这简简单单的两个字,可不能轻易的脱口而出。因为这个打招呼的学问可大着呢。

Greeting people is usually the first lesson in learning various languages. Learning Chinese is no exception. But these simple two words cannot be easily blurted out. Because the knowledge of greeting is quite extensive.

1 打招呼用“你好”。这是最标准通用的说法。 把“你好”两字拆分开来,意为“你,很好”。 汉字写成“你好”。 发音是“nǐ hǎo”。 Say hello with 'hello'. This is the most standard and universal statement. Split the word 'hello' into two parts, meaning 'you, very good'. Write 'Hello' in Chinese characters. The pronunciation is" nǐ hǎo ".

2 向长辈打招呼时,尊称“您好”。这个意思与“你好”差不多,但增添了一层尊敬的意味。 虽然“您好”要比“你好”来得更礼貌,但从实际使用来说还是不及“你好”用得广。 汉字写成“您好”。 发音是“nín hǎo”。 When greeting an elder, respectfully say 'Hello'. This meaning is similar to 'hello', but adds a sense of respect. Although 'hello' is more polite than 'hello', it is still not as widely used as' hello 'in practical terms. Write the Chinese character as' Hello '. The pronunciation is "nín hǎo ".

3 跟一群人打招呼用“你们好”。这个词是用来跟一群人打招呼的。 “你们好”是“你好”的复数形式。 汉字写成“你们好”。 发音是“nǐmén hǎo”。 Greet a group of people with 'hello'. This word is used to greet a group of people. Hello "is the plural form of" Hello ". Write Chinese characters as' Hello '. The pronunciation is " nǐmén hǎo ".

4 通电话时用“喂”。打电话给某人或接电话时用“喂”。 “喂”不能用来跟人面对面地打招呼,只能在通电话时使用。 汉字写成“喂”。 发音是“wéi”。 Use 'hello' when talking on the phone. Use 'hello' when making or answering a phone call to someone. 'Hello' cannot be used to greet people face-to-face, it can only be used during phone conversations. Write the Chinese character as' Hello '. The pronunciation is' wéi '.

生活中中国人是怎么打招呼的呢?How do Chinese people greet each other in daily life?

1.嗨hāi 最简单又直接的,朋友见面的时候,或者你遇到了同样是年轻人的时候可以使用 Hi, h ā The simplest and most direct way is to use it when friends meet or when you meet someone who is also young

2.哈喽 hā lōu 看似英文的中文打招呼方式 Hello hā lōu, the seemingly English Chinese greeting method

3.最近怎么样?(zuìjìn zěnme yàng?)当你的朋友问你这句话的时候,就好像英文中的How is it going? 一样,真的不需要你把你每天吃了什么,做了什么都告诉他,轻松的回一句“很好”,“还不错”然后开始你想说的话题就可以啦。 How have you been lately? (zuìjìn zěnme yàng?) When your friend asks you this sentence, it's like how is it going in English? Similarly, you really don't need to tell him everything you eat and do every day. Simply reply with "great" or "not bad" and start the topic you want to talk about.

4.嗨,吃了吗?”很多外国朋友问我:中国人是不是真的那么喜欢吃?真的喜欢用“吃了吗?”打招呼吗?这种打招呼应用时间是在应该吃饭的“早餐”、“午餐”、“晚餐”期间;地点限制不多,但千万不要在洗手间门口,垃圾箱旁边这些有“味道”的地方;对象嘛,就是要跟比较熟悉的人Hi, have you eaten yet Many foreign friends ask me: Do Chinese people really like to eat? Do you really like to say 'Have you eaten yet?' as a greeting? This greeting application time is during the "breakfast", "lunch", and "dinner" periods when meals should be eaten; There are not many location restrictions, but do not place them near the restroom door or garbage bin where there is a "smell"; As for the object, it's about interacting with people who are familiar with it

汉语的语音语调和发音也非常重要。所以学习汉语时,建议大家看着视频模仿,这样更有助于掌握问候语的发音及使用的场合。 The pronunciation, intonation, and pronunciation of Chinese are also very important. So when learning Chinese, it is recommended that everyone watch videos to imitate, which is more helpful in mastering the pronunciation and usage of greetings.
