How to Greet a Foreign Friend
When you are introduced to foreign friends,you should greet them with “ How do you do?” while shaking hands with them for a few seconds.The next thing is,perhaps,the presenting of a business card,which is also called a name card.You should accept the card with a smile and a quick browse (浏览),and at the same time,offer yours.
Nowadays ,business cards have become more and more popular in an introduction.They contain not only the bearer’s name,profession and the title (头衔),but also the address ,telephone number,postal code(邮编),e-mail address and some other useful information and personal data.To a foreign friend,we should remember to present a card either with an English version or written in English,because most English speakers don’t have competence in reading Chinese.In most cases,a Chinese name is hard to pronounce for foreign friends.So you should make it as simple as possible in the introduction.Probably,you may give them your family name only.They will feel very pleased to pronounce your name correctly.After this short greeting ,most foreigners expect to move on quickly to the business.So you can shift (转换)to the business topic naturally.
怎么翻译呀?
当你被介绍给外国朋友时,你应该在与他们握手的同时用“ How do you do?”来问候他们.接下来的,可能是互赠名片.(a business card ,a name card都是名片的意思)你应该微笑着着接受名片并很快的浏览,同时,递出自己的名片.
最近,名片在人们相互介绍认识的场合里越来越受欢迎.名片不仅包含了持有这个名片的人的名字、职位和头衔,还包含了地址、电话号码、邮编、电子信箱地址和一些其他有用的信息和个人数据.对于一个外国朋友,我们应该记得赠送一个附有英语译文或是用英语写的名片,因为大多数说英语的人无法阅读中文.在大多数事例中,对于外国朋友一个中文名字是很难发音的.所以你应该在介绍中使之尽可能的简单.你可能只给你的姓.他们会感到非常高兴能正确发音你的名字.在短暂的问候之后,大多数外国人希望尽快谈论生意.所以你能自然地转换到生意的话题.
