Write a list of expressions that you would use to greet a friend, ask about the friend's well-being, and say good-bye to him or her.

Bonjour Monsieur (M.) good morning Sir / Mr. Smith

Bonjour Madame (Mme.) good afternoon Ma’am / Mrs. Smith

Bonsoir Mademoiselle (Mlle.) good evening Miss / Ms. Smith

Au revoir goodbye

Notice that last names are not used with greetings. Bonjour, bonsoir, and au revoir are

also commonly used with family and friends. Some expressions are appropriate for both

formal and informal situations.

Informal

Salut! Hi / bye

Salut Jean! Hi / bye Jean!

Ciao! Bye!

À demain! See you tomorrow!

Allez, au revoir So long!

À la prochaine! See you soon (next time)!

These expressions are quite informal and would not be appropriate to use with older

people whom you do not know very well. Ask the name of the other person:

Et vous? And you?(formal)

Et toi? “ (informal)

Comment vous∪appelez-vous? What’s your name (formal)

Comment t’appelles-tu? “ (informal)

To introduce yourself:

Je m’appelle My name is

Je suis de + city I’m from

Je viens de I’m from (literally, I come from. . .)

Note that the verb venir is an irregular verb but can be used like être for introductions.
