Speak Natural English: Everyday Greetings

Brian L

Jul 3, 2025

Hi! I'm Brian-sensei, and I help learners speak natural, everyday English.
Here are two useful phrases from my  phrasebook, Speak Natural English: 50 Must-Know Phrases for Japanese Learners.

How’s it going?
調⼦はどう？ カジュアルなあいさつで、友 達や親しい⼈に最近どうしているか軽く聞 く時に使う。
Example:
A: Hey, how’s it going?
やあ、元気？
B: Pretty good. You?
結構いいよ。君は

Hi there.
やあ！フレンドリーでカジュアルな「こん にちは」。知らない⼈やちょっとした知り 合いにも使える。 Example:
A: Hi there!
やあ！
B: Oh hey! Nice to see you.
あ、どうも！会えてうれしいよ。
