Greetings

Yutaka Niibe at

In Japan, we say good morning, ohayou!, each other in the morning (usually among family, neighbers,and colleagues).

I thought that it is a common practice around the world.

In Chinese language program, I learned that there is no such practice in China.

It reminds me that in Mainland, they called my name "Xin Bu Yu!" (in Chinese), or asked "Have you eaten?". Well, it might be better than mere greeting, since it can express we can recognize each other explicitly, or can get most important information.

At least in our family we tend to say "good morning" to family, friends and colleagues, though maybe it should be "have you had coffee?"
