Answer

Hi Daniel!

You can say the word "greetings" to say hello to someone but it is very formal. "greetings" is also a name for words like "hello" and "welcome" - these words are types of greeting.

"regards" is normally used to finish a letter or email. "regards" is like "best wishes". It means wishing someone good in their life.

I hope this helps!
