Talk Politely How are you is a nice question It s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other But How are you is also a very unusual question It s a question that often doesn t have an answer The person who asks How are you hopes to hear the answer Fine even if the person s friend isn t fine The reason is that How are you isn t really a question and Fine isn t really an answer They are simply other ways of saying Hello or Hi Sometimes people don t say what they mean either For example when someone asks Do you agree the other person might be thinking No I disagree I think you are wrong But it isn t very polite to disagree so strongly so the other person might say I m not sure It s a nicer way to say that you don t agree with someone People also don t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people For example many talks over the phone finish when one person says I ve to go now often the person who wants to stop gives an excuse Someone s at the door Something is burning on the stove The excuses might be real or it might not Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn t want to talk any more but it isn t polite to say that The excuse is more polite and it doesn t hurt the other person Whether they are greeting each other talking about an idea or finishing a talk people often don t say exactly what they are thinking It s an important way that people try to be nice to each other and it s all part of the game of language 36 When a person in the United States asks How are you he or she wants to hear A How are you B Hello C I don t know D Very well thank you 37 If you have different opinions from someone it is polite to say A You re wrong B I m not so sure if you are right C Of course I disagree D No I
