Hey! Long time no see! What have you been up to? Oh? You’ve been studying English? That’s great! Why don’t you take a seat and check out this practical English lesson on thirty-five ways to greet people. What’s that? You don’t think there are that many? There’s only one way to find out! Hit play and learn how to use what’s going on, what’s new, all good, how goes, It’s been a while, and many more ways to greet people on a daily basis. Make sure to do the quiz when you’re done, and let me know in the comments if you know of other ways to greet people!
Hi Alex. Thank you for this wonderful lesson. I got 19/20. Thanks again and stay safe :)

Hello Alex. It was interesting. It seems like I was first today here. :) Very long quiz :) I made only one mistake in question three. That’s why I need small clarification from you, if you don’t mind. My answer was : “How long has it been going?”. According to quiz it’s wrong. Is it so in informal english speech? I mean, was my answer totally (grammatically) wrong or not. I gave such answer because it seemed to me a similar like in the board: How have you been doing?. Anyway, I grateful to the project and to you personally for giving to all of us a possibility to learn foreign languages. I wish you all the best! Take care!

Vitaly – Your idea, “How long has it been going?” is reasonable. But it is not a phrase a native English speaker would say to greet someone. If someone said that to me, I would think they are talking about something like a speech or like rain (something that happens over time). If I walk out of my office into the rain, I can ask someone at the door, “How long has it been going?” They would know I am asking how long has it been raining. If I walk into the room, and my husband is watching the governor speak on TV, I can ask “How long has it been going?” and he knows I’m asking how long the governor has been talking. I hope this helps!

Hello Alex,
thanks for the lesson – helpful as always!
But I have a question about it. What exactly is the difference between “a while” and “awhile”? Perhaps there is a lesson in engVid I can find the answer?
Thanks in advance.
