Let's get started.
Hi, this is Bill.
And, uhh… right now,
I'm going to explain to you about a speaking problem
that I have seen and heard…far too many times since I came to Korea.
Now, it's a very easy phrase.
The simple phrase, “Nice to meet you.”
Ya, you probably know it.
You've probably said it.
But the problem is, so many Korean people don't understand 'when' to really use the phrase, “Nice to meet you”…
…because when you 'meet' somebody knew, that means you told them your name…
…they told you their name.
Many times I'm just walking down the street…
You know, I'm shopping or something,
and then a Korean person says, “Hi, nice to meet you.”
And I think….
'I don't know your name.'
