Japanese has a greeting that is the equivalent of ‘how are you?’, but it is used far less freąuently than in English. As a generał rule, you should only ask someone if you have not seen them for several days:

How are you? ogenki desu ka?

How are you? (formal) gokigen wa ikaga desu ka ?

Fine, and you?

okagesamade.........

(name) san wa?

Thanking People

Japanese has a number of ways of expressing gratitude, the simplest of which being dómo (thanks). Morę polite is the expression arigató gozaimasu. You will often here the two expressions piled on top of each other, dómo arigató gozaimasu.

Gifts

It is common for Japanese people to give gifts as an expression of gratitude for favours or when parting with friends. In formal situations the receiver often unwraps the gift when the giver has left.
