When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But if you listen, you may learn something new – Dalaï Lama

Greeting is an act of communication in which human beings intentionally make their presence known to each other, to show attention to, and to suggest a type of relationship (usually cordial) or social status (formal or informal) between individuals or groups of people coming in contact with each other.
