 A. GREETING

Pengertian Greetings

Greetings adalah sapaan atau ungkapan salam. Greetings yang mungkin paling sering
kalian dengar adalah “Hello”, “Hi”, “Good morning”, “Good afternoon”, dan “Good
evening”.

Jenis Greetings

Tapi apakah kalian tahu bahwa Greetings dapat dibagi menjadi dua yaitu formal dan
informal. Formal greetings digunakan untuk situasi atau acara formal seperti rapat dan
presentasi. Selain itu formal greetings juga dipakai saat kalian bicara dengan orang yang lebih
tua seperti guru maupun orang asing yang tidak terlalu akrab dengan mu.

Contoh dari formal greetings adalah:

Formal Greetings

Ungkapan Tanggapan

Good morning/afternoon/evening. Good morning/afternoon/evening.

How do you do? How do you do.

Hello. Hello.
Berbeda dengan formal greetings, informal greetings adalah ungkapan salam untuk
berinteraksi saat suasana santai, dengan teman sebaya atau orang yang sudah kalian kenal
akrab. Contoh informal greetings adalah:

Informal Greetings

Ungkapan Tanggapan

Hi! Hi!

What’s up? Good.

How is life? Not bad.

How is it going? It is going well.

Contoh Dialog Greetings
Di bawah merupakan dua contoh dialog greetings beserta tanggapannya. Bisakah
kalian membedakan dialog mana yang merupakan formal greetings dan informal
greetings?

Dialog Greetings 1
Roy : “Good morning, Sir. My name is Roy..”
Mr. Adi : “Good morning, Roy. How can I help you?.”
Roy : “I am a new student and I do not know where my class is.”
Mr. Adi : “Alright. What class are you in?”
Roy : “7.G class, Sir.”

Dialog Greetings 2
Jennie : “Hi, Ben!”
Ben : “Hi, Jennie. What is up? It has been ages since we met last time.”
Jennie : “I am good. What about you?”
Ben : “Well, nothing special. I have just finished my school and found someone special.”
Jennie : “Oh my God! Congratulations. I am so happy for you.”
Berhasilkah kalian membedakan kedua dialog di atas?

 B. LEAVE TAKING

Pengertian Leave Taking

Leave taking adalah ungkapan pamitan/perpisahan. Ungkapan ini berfungsi sebagai penutup
percakapan.

Jenis Leave Taking

Leave taking terdiri dari dua jenis yaitu formal dan informal. Contoh leave taking formal
beserta tanggapannya adalah:

Formal Leave Taking

Ungkapan Tanggapan

Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you, too.

Good bye. Good bye.

Nice to see you. Nice to see

Sedangkan, contoh dari informal leave taking yaitu:

Informal Leave Taking

Ungkapan Tanggapan

Bye! Bye!

Bye-bye! bye -bye!

See you! See you!

Good night. Good night.

Kalian tahu tidak kenapa “Good night” termasuk leave taking bukan greetings? “Good night”
dalam Bahasa Inggris dapat berarti selamat tidur dan juga selamat tinggal. Saat kalian ingin
mengatakan selamat malam untuk sapaan, kalian dapat mengucapkan “Good evening”. Tapi,
untuk mengucapkan selamat malam saat tidur, kalian harus menggunakan kata “Good night”.
Jadi, dalam kata lain, “Good night” memiliki peran yang sama seperti “Good bye”

Berikut merupakan contoh-contoh dialog leave taking. Seperti biasa, coba sebutkan dialog
leave taking nomer berapa yang merupakan formal dan dialog nomer berapa yang merupakan
informal?

Y : “Okay, bye.”
