English conversation 7 : Informal and formal introducing
1.Memperkenalkan diri (Introduce yourself)
Percakapan informal :
- Hi, I am ......
- Hello, my name is ......
- Hello, I don't think we've met. Let me introduce myself. My name is ....
- Good Morning / afternoon / evening. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is .....
2. Memperkenalkan orang lain (Introduce someone else)
Percakapan informal :
- This is my (nephew, brother, tacher, father, etc) .............(name)
Percakapan formal :
- May I introduce my colleague ..........(name)
- Allow me to introduce my colleague ............(name)
- I would like you to meet my colleague, ...............(name)
3. Menjawab sebuah perkenalan (What we say after introduction)
Percakapan informal :
- Hi....., nice to meet you >>>>> answer : nice to meet you too
- Hello.....Iam happy to meet you >>>>> answer : Lovely to meet you too
Percakapan formal :
- How do you do ..........>>>>> answer : How do you do
- It's a pleasure to meet you ......>>>>> answer : I am very pleased to meet you.
4. Menyapa seseorang yang sebelumnya telah diperkenalkan (How to greet someone you know)
Percakapan informal :
- Hi ......how are you ? >>>>> answer : Fine thank, and you ?
- Hello..... How are you doing ? >>>>> answer : Great, thanks. How about you ?
Percakapan formal :
- Good morning ........How are you today ? >>>>> answer : I am very well, thank you. And you ?
- Hello ....... It's nice to see you again. >>>>> answer : And you.
pada contoh percakapan formal di atas terdapat dua kata "and you". Yang
pertama menggunakan tanda tanya yang mengembalikan pertanyaan, sedangkan
yang ke dua tidak memakai tanda tanya, karena pernyataannya adalah
"it's nice to see you again" dan jawabannya adalah sebuah pernyataan : And you.artinya : demikian juga saya.
5. Mengucapkan salam ketika hendak berpisah.
Percakapan informal :
- I must go. Catch you later. >>>>> answer : see you later. Bye
- I'll be off now. Speak to you later.>>>>> answer : Sure, take care.
Percakapan formal :
- Goodbye. It has been a pelasure meeting you. >>>>> answer : The pleasure is mine. I hope to see you again soon.
- I must be on my way. It was nice seeing you again.>>>>> answer : Likewise. I look orward to seeing you again soon.
Lakukan latihan dan gunakan sesering mungkin, untuk membuat anda menjadi
trampil coba susun 5 bentuk percakapan di atas baik yang informal atau
formal menjadi sebuah percakapan utuh. Mulai dari memperkenalkan diri,
kemudian memperkenalkan teman, dst.
Selamat berlatih.
Nb : tanda titik-titik selalu berisi sebuah nama.
