it's controversial in english gretings when we respond a question "how do you do" by "how do you do"........
example
good morning sir
good morning, how are you?
i'm fine.
how do you do?
how do you do?
fine.
thanks...

wataalam wa kizungu naomba msaada......
 
huwezi kujibu "habari yako" kurudia "habari yako." Kama mtu amekuuliza "How are you" useme vile uko. Halafu ukitaka unaweza kurudia swali kwa mfano "I am good, and how are you?" Kumbuka kujibu kwanza. Pia kumbuka kama mtu anasema "Hello" useme "Hello" pia ama "hi".

siyo kweli bwana,mi nachojua mtu akikuuliza how do you do? kwa kawaida unaitikia "im doing fine" na good morning kwa kiswahli ni kumtakia asubuhi njema ndo maana mtu akikusalimia goodmorning unaitikia hivyo kwa kuwa amekutakia asubuhi njema nawe unamtakia asubuhi njema

Usipingane na ukweli mkuu, The correct answer for the question
"How do you do"? is "how do you do"!
And this is a common greeting to English users.
But in case someone asks you:-
"how are you doing"?
the correct answer for this question depends on how you feel! So you need to answer accordingly!

Well shared!!!
