Greetings in Passing
It is polite to greet a person you know. However, you don't always have time to stop and have a conversation. Just remember to smile as you say hello. A small wave is also polite. Sometimes you pass the same person a second time on the same day. You can say "hello again" or just smile.
跟認識的人打招呼是有禮貌的體現,但是你們並不會每次都有時間停下來談談。只要記住說「你好」的時候帶上微笑就行了,另外輕輕招手也會顯得很禮貌。有些時候你可能在同一天再次碰到這個人,那時你可以說"hello again",或者僅用微笑示意。
