MEETING PEOPLE

    MEETING SOMEONE FOR THE FIRST TIME
How do you do?                        How do you do?
Pleased to meet you                  Nice to meet you

MEETING SOMEONE YOU KNOW
How is your wife/family etc.                  Very well/fine thank you.
How are things?                                       Not so bad/Pretty good
How is business/the job?                         Not very good, I am afraid

RESPONDING TO NEWS
Good news                                              I am (very) pleased/glad/happy to hear that.
                                                                That is great news!
Bad news                                                I am (very) sorry to hear that.
Surprising news                                     That’s incredible! Really!
