सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Germans value 'Ehrlichkeit' (honesty). If they say they are froh to see you, it is a genuine compliment. They don't usually use this as a 'throwaway' greeting. In Austria, you might hear 'Es gfreit mi' (Es freut mich) more often, but 'Ich bin froh, dich zu sehen' is perfectly understood and used in standard contexts. Swiss German speakers might use 'I bi froh, di z'gseh'. The 'zu' becomes a short 'z' sound attached to the verb. In German offices, even if you are friendly with a colleague, you might wait until you are in a private setting to use such an emotional phrase. In meetings, stick to 'Schön, dass Sie da sind'.
Add 'endlich' for impact
If you haven't seen someone in a long time, say 'Ich bin froh, dich *endlich* wieder zu sehen'. It adds a lot of warmth.
Watch the 'dich'
Only use 'dich' with people you are on a first-name basis with. Otherwise, use 'Sie'.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल
10 सवालNo, you must include the word 'zu'. It's 'dich zu sehen'.
Mostly, but 'froh' is closer to 'glad' or 'relieved'. 'Glücklich' is the word for 'happy' in a deeper sense.
Because you are seeing 'you'. 'You' is the object of the verb 'sehen', so it must be in the accusative case ('dich').
Only if you have a very close, informal relationship. Otherwise, use 'Es freut mich, Sie zu sehen'.
'Erleichtert' means 'relieved' specifically after a scare. 'Froh' is more general joy.
Use the plural 'euch': 'Ich bin froh, euch zu sehen.'
It can be, but it's mostly just friendly. It depends on your tone and the context.
Yes! 'Ich bin froh, die {die|f} Sonne zu sehen' is very common.
Yes, 'Schön, dich zu sehen' is the most common short version.
Not if it's a simple sentence like 'Ich bin froh'. But if you add an action (like seeing), you need 'zu'.
