But is this correct etiquette for greeting someone?Should you use a hug,a kiss or just a friendly handshake?Greeting people in the West can be daunting prospect,and to make things worse habits are changing all the time.With so many different social settings and relationships,one can easiy get confused about how best to say "hello"or"goodbye".And with an ever-expanding selection of greetings,form back-pats to hard-slaps,it can be hard to know where to star.

that depends on the person's culture. For us here in my country,
when we meet people for the first time, we just give them a friendly
handshake or a simple wave. As for people we already know or we are
close to, we give them a kiss on the cheek which we call a "beso-beso"
or a hug. Well, it really depends on you since not everyone do that.
