How Do You Do?, Good Morning/Afternoon, etc., Hallo
How do you do? is now used almost exclusively in formal and semi-formal introductions.
eg Mr A: Mr Brown, Pd like
Mr B: How do you do? Mr C: How do you do?
to introduce you to meet
Peter Fry, a colleague of mine
Although this sentence is in the form of a question, it has lost its interrogative meaning and requires no answer, except a repetition of How do you do? by the person to whom it is first addressed.
Note that do you is often contracted to d'you, pronounced [dju], [dp] or [d33].
How do you do? is still occasionally used as a greeting addressed to someone whom the speaker already knows, but such usage is old-fashioned and not to be recommended. Here Good morning/afternoon/evening should be used in formal situations and Hallo in semi-formal and informal style. (Hallo is also used instead of How do you do? in informal introductions.) Note that Good day is not used nowadays, either as a greeting or when leaving someone.
Exercise. Give the appropriate greetings for the following situations.
1. You meet a friend in the street. 2. You are introduced to a friend's parents. 3. You come home in the evening. (Your family are there.)
4. You meet a senior member of the university staff at about 3 p. m.
5. You meet a neighbour of about your own age while shopping in the morning. 6. You are introduced to a visiting lecturer. 7. You meet one of your teachers, whom you know rather well, at a concert. 8. You meet
77 youf neighbour's son, aged 9, when leaving home. 9. You are introduced to a friend's sister at a party. 10. A stranger knocks on your door one evening. (He is a well-dressed middle-aged man.)
In Case
In case as a conjunction has two uses: (1) to denote that the action expressed by the verb is performed in anticipation of a situation which may or may not arise;
eg 1. Take an umbrella in case it rains.
(It is not raining now but it may rain later.)
2. Г Il give you my phone number in case you need to ring me.
(I'll give it to you now, although I don't know whether you will need it or not.)
3. Remind him about the meeting in case he's forgotten.
(Perhaps he has forgotten, perhaps not.)
4. I'd better give you the ticket now, in case I don't see you again before the concert.
5. Here's another pound, in case you have to take a taxi.
Just can be included to emphasize the unlikelihood of the situation occurring.
eg 6. Take some paper and a pencil with you, just in case they're out and you have to leave a note.
In some cases the verb may be omitted after in case, since it is implied by the context.
eg 7. It doesn't look like rain but I'll take an umbrella just in case. (=in case it does rain) 8. I think I'll wake up in time but call me just in case. (=in case I don't wake up in time)
Just is usually, although not always included in such cases.
This use of in case corresponds to the Russian на тот случай, если or, without a verb, на всякий случай.
In case should not be used as an alternative to if (Russian в случае, если), at least in British English. Such sentences as:
* In case you have any questions please ask me.
* In case she still has a temperature tomorrow, send for the doctor.
78 are incorrect. Here only if is possible.
Note. It is true that in case occurs in the sense of if in American English and can therefore be used in this way by those foreign speakers whose English is American in other respects too.
(2) to denote negative purpose, instead of lest, which is now confined to very formal style and is no longer used in conversation;
eg 9. Don't go near the water in case you fall in.
10. Vll put an apron on in case I get my dress dirty.
11. Set the alarm clock in case you oversleep.
