There is a classic line in the movie "Mr. Sweetheart" You had me at Hello, which means that if you say hello, I will fall. This has also become the most classic Hello on the screen.
In fact, "Hello" can not only be said Hello, but also other expressions, such as How are you doing? How is it going? What's up? And the most well-known How are you?
But they are not exactly the same, and the answers are also different.
Let's study with Mr. Jimmy
How are you doing 在问啥？
How are you doing?
How are you, how are you
Many times two people will say How are you doing as soon as they meet? This time is the meaning of "how are you" and focuses on asking about your status.
But the other party is also saying hello, and does not really want to ask you if you are good, so the answer is just a sentence like Great and Not bad.
Sometimes are can also be omitted and simply say How you doing?
Hi, I'm Jack. How are you doing?
Hi, I'm Jack. How are you?
How's it going?
How is everything?
This sentence is also a common sentence for greeting, but it can be seen from its meaning that it focuses on the latest situation rather than the status. However, the answer can also be Great, not bad Oh~
- Hi, Tom, how's it going?
- Great!
- Hello Tom, how's it going lately?
- Superb!
Greetings also make a difference
What's up?
What's wrong? What have you been up to lately?
It's a more casual and more common greeting, generally used among acquaintances, focusing on asking what have you been up to lately?
There are also many expressions in answering this sentence:
Not much/nothing much Nothing
Nothing new is nothing new
Same old old look
- Hey, what's up?
- Nothing much.
- Hi, what's been you doing lately?
- Nothing too busy.
How are you?
How are you?
These four sentences are all used for greeting, but there is a difference in use. When you're completely unfamiliar with someone, how are you? If not very familiar, can you do with How are you doing? Or How's it going? And what's up? It is very familiar with people to use, don't use it wrong~
Answer How are you? Don't say I'm fine. And you? Well, this expression is too old, and few people use it anymore. Since it is a greeting sentence between unfamiliar people, simply use Good, thanks or I'm doing well to answer it, and don't pull the other person's bla and say it non-stop.
- How are you?
- I'm doing well. Thanks.
- How are you?
- I'm fine, thank you.
I've been better is not great
I've been better.
Not very good
Answering other people's greetings can also be based on their own status, with I've been better or I've had better days, I was better before, now not as good as before, that is, "now is not very good" meaning.
- How are you doing?
- I've had better days.
- Not very good.
someone can't complain. /kəm'pleɪn/
Satisfied, nothing to complain about
Camplain means "complaining", which is not to say that you can't complain, but that although there are some minor questions, you are still passable, and it is also used to answer the greetings of others.
- Hey, bro. How's it going?
- Good. I can't complain.
- Hey bro, how's it been lately?
- Ok, quite satisfied.

Keeping busy.
Very good Could't be better.
Very good Pretty good.
I'm doing well.
