“Hw are yu?” is a nice questin. It’s a friendly way that peple in the U.S.A greet each ther. But “Hw are yu?” is als a very unusual questin. It’s a questin that ften desn’t need an answer. The persn wh asks “Hw are yu?” hpes t hear the answer “Fine”, even if the persn’s friend isn’t fine. The reasn is that “Hw are yu?” isn’t really a questin and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply ther ways f saying “Hell” r “Hi”.
Smetimes, peple als dn’t say exactly what they mean. Fr example, when smene asks “D yu agree?”, the ther persn might think, “N, I disagree. I think yu’re wrng...” But it isn’t very plite t disagree s strngly, s the ther persn might say “I’m nt sure.” It’s a nicer way t say that yu dn’t agree with smene.
Peple als dn’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with ther peple. Fr example, many talks ver the phne finish when ne persn says “I have t g nw”.
