  1. Good evening.
    Me, too!!
    I just say "ohayo" to my family in the morning.
    But I never fail saying that phrase because I think it is one symbol to get along with my family.
    I think greeting with our family is the most important and easiest communication way.
    So, we should cherish it.
    How do you think about it?

  2. Low bow???
    If I were you, I bow deeply. I think that I'm just a typical Japanese.

    Do you think about foreighners?? I rarely hug with Japanese, I hug with foreighners.

  3. I agree with you.
    We do not change to greet for opposite sex, but we may change different age, older or younger.
