"Meeting New People"

When meeting someone for the first time, it’s common to introduce yourself by sharing basic personal information. You usually start with your name and where you’re from. For example, you might say, "Hi, my name is Sarah, and I’m from Italy."

Next, people might ask about your job or studies. For instance, "I work as a teacher" or "I’m a student." Sharing hobbies or interests can also help you connect with others. "I enjoy reading and cycling" gives people more insight into your personality.

In some formal situations, like when checking in at a hotel or filling out a form, you may need to provide more specific details, such as your phone number, address, or email. You might hear, "Can I have your phone number?" or "What’s your email address?"

Knowing how to introduce yourself and ask for personal details is an essential skill for everyday conversations, both in casual and formal settings.
