Do you think it is difficult to introduce a person?
Es Look and listen to these conversations:
Lee y escucha las siguientes conversaciones.

A: Good morning! Mr. Lopez. This is Ms. García. She is our new workmate. Ms. Garcia, this is Mr. Lopez.

B: Bye!

When we introduce a person we start by: “This is…”
Formal situations:
This is Mr Lopez
/ This is Miss Garcia
Informal situations:
This is Juan
/ This is Lupe
As you see, for formal situations we use: “This is” + a “title” + a last name
This is Mrs Lopez (married woman)
This is Miss Garcia (single woman)
This is Ms Gonzalez (when we don’t know if the woman is married or single)
This is Mr Perez (For men, single and married)
For Informal situations, we don’t use Titles, we only say: This is + the person’s names
This is Sara, this is Roberto, this is Charlie, this is Sandy
After mentioning the person’s names or last names, we usually mention our relationship with that person.
When it’s a man, we say: He is my … + a relationship
When it’s a woman, we say: She is my … + a relationship
Note
If you don’t know any of the words you have 2 options:
- Ask a teacher: “What is the meaning of “boss”? or any word you don’t understand.
- Look the word up in a dictionary: dictionary.cambridge.org

Finally, when we meet a person for the first time, we say: “Nice to meet you”. If the person you meet says that phrase first, then you answer with “Nice to meet you, too”. Always include the person’s name or last name to be more friendly.
