  Greetings are words used to initiate an everyday communicative interaction or to acknowledge the presence of others. Like many other situational frames such as parting, complementing, apologizing, wedding, etc., greeting is one of the cultural blocks, which varies cross-culturally. With the accelerated development of globalization, chances are that cultural clashes will inevitably arise between people with different cultural backgrounds. A better understanding of cultural differences in greetings will definitely boost the maintenance and improvement of human relations in cross-cultural communications.

  The present research, therefore, explores some common properties of greetings in English and Chinese and investigates the differences in their linguistic routines and use. By undertaking a contrastive study of greetings in the two languages, the research aims to compare the nature of such routines in English and Chinese and examine the kinds of factors that affect their use.
