When dealing with beginners learning your language, what are the first words that you teach them? As a midwesterner, I feel as if sorry and thank you are almost more important than hello.

Question

Answer

When I taught beginners, I started with hello, good morning. How are you? Things like that, but I think it has to do with culture, we don't say much sorry. Thank you sometimes we just make the gesture with our hand or lower our heads a little or smile.
