Review Summary

  • Buongiorno / Ciao
  • Mi chiamo + [Name]
  • Grazie / Prego
  • Come stai?
  • Arrivederci

자주 하는 실수

Ciao is too informal for strangers. Always use Buongiorno in professional settings.

Wrong: Ciao to a stranger
정답: Buongiorno to a stranger

Do not add a verb like 'è' (is); the phrase 'Mi chiamo' already includes the reflexive 'call myself'.

Wrong: Mi chiamo è Marco
정답: Mi chiamo Marco

Stai is informal. Use the formal 'Come sta' when speaking to someone you don't know well.

Wrong: Come stai a teacher
정답: Come sta a teacher
