🍿 How do you do? 🍿
The language is changing, and it’s unusual to hear anyone say “How do you do?” these days, but fifty years ago or so it was a formulaic expression used on meeting a person for the first time, and the correct response was not “I’m fine, thanks” or something like that.
The correct response was simply to shake hands and say exactly the same words to the other person: “How do you do?”
This custom was observed in British English. It applied in formal situations where two people were meeting, or being introduced for the first time.
It is scarcely used at all these days.
