I wrote the following lesson to teach my Brazilian students of English <\/a>daytime greetings. Please read it carefully and answer the questions below it which are aimed at helping me to improve the quality of the article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good Morning and Good Afternoon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The expressions \u201cgood morning\u201d and \u201cgood afternoon\u201d are courteous greetings used by people every day. You say, \u201cgood morning\u201d when you meet someone for the first time in the morning. \u201cGood morning\u201d is really a short way of saying, \u201cI wish you a good morning.\u201d Any time after twelve o\u2019clock, while the sun is still up, is called \u201cafternoon.\u201d When you meet someone for the first time in the afternoon, you say, \u201cgood afternoon.\u201d You may say, \u201cgoodbye, have a good day,<\/em>\u201d \u201cgoodbye, have a great day<\/em>\u201d or \u201cgoodbye, enjoy the rest of your day\u201d when parting company with someone at any time during the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Is the article well written?<\/li>
  2. On a scale of one to ten, how do you rate the quality of the article?<\/li>
  3. How can the article be improved?<\/li>
  4. Is there anything that needs correction or improvement? If so, what?<\/li>
  5. In the cultures of English speaking countries, is it also customary to say “good afternoon” when parting company with someone in the afternoon? Or do you only say it when meeting?<\/li>
  6. When parting company with someone in the afternoon, you may say “See you later. Have a good afternoon,” “goodbye, have a good afternoon,” or “good afternoon.” Are all of those correct?<\/li>
  7. You may say, “goodbye, have a good day,” or “goodbye, have a great day,” when parting company with someone at any time during the day. How accurate is this statement? Can it be improved? If so, how?<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Good Morning and Good Afternoon (Version 2)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The expressions \u201cgood morning\u201d and \u201cgood afternoon\u201d are courteous greetings used by people every day. You say, \u201cgood morning\u201d when you meet someone for the first time in the morning. \u201cGood morning\u201d is really a short way of saying, \u201cI wish you a good morning.\u201d Any time after twelve o\u2019clock, while the sun is still up, is called \u201cafternoon.\u201d When you meet someone for the first time in the afternoon, you say, \u201cgood afternoon.\u201d When parting company with someone in the morning, you may say, “goodbye, have a great day.” When parting company with someone in the afternoon, you may say, “goodbye, enjoy the rest of your day.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Question<\/strong>: Does version 2 give students a better understand of morning and afternoon expressions?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
