Nice to meet you. 與 Nice meeting you.

■有這樣一道題，該選哪個為好呢？

—How do you do? __________.

—How do you do? Welcome to our school.

A. Nice to meet you                           B. Nice meeting you

C. Nice to have met you                     D. Glad meeting you

■此題應選A。注意以下各問候語的使用。如：

1. Nice to meet you. 主要用作初次見面的寒喧語，注意相關(同義)說法。如：

Glad to meet you. (＝I’m glad to meet you. )

Pleased to meet you. (＝I’m pleased to meet you. )

Nice to meet you. (＝It’s nice to meet you. )

其大意相當于漢語的“認識你很高興”。如。如：

—Hi, I’m Jim. 你好，我叫吉姆。

—Hi, I’m John. Nice to meet you. 你好，我叫約翰，認識你很高興。

2. Nice meeting you. 主要用于分手的場合，也可說成。如：

Nice to have met you.

It is [was] nice to have met you.

I’m glad to have met you.

其大意為“認識你很高興”。如。如：

—I must be off now. Nice meeting you. 我要走了，認識你很高興。

—Nice meeting you too. Bye-bye. 認識你我也很高興，再見。

3. 嚴格說來，Nice to meet you之類的用于見面的場合，而Nice meeting you. 之類的用于分手的場合，但在實際使用中，人們有時也在分手時用Nice to meet you. 可視為 It was nice to meet you 等之省略。
