1. First Introduction Dialogue - Formal Style (Formeller Dialog)
In formal situations or when speaking with examiners and new acquaintances, we use the formal pronoun Sie and polite expressions:

Guten Tag! Wie heißen Sie?
Good day! What is your name?
Person B (Yahya):
Guten Tag! Ich heiße Yahya Younes. Und wie ist Ihr Name?
Good day! My name is Yahya Younes. And what is your name?
Person A (Herr Weber):
Mein Name ist Thomas Weber. Woher kommen Sie, Herr Younes?
My name is Thomas Weber. Where do you come from, Mr. Younes?
Person B (Yahya):
Ich komme aus Ägypten, aber ich wohne jetzt in Kairo. Was sind Sie von Beruf?

💡 Quick Grammar Tip (Grammatik-Tipp)
Notice the use of Sie followed by a verb ending in -en in formal questions (e.g., Woher kommen Sie?), while its possessive pronoun is Ihr / Ihre.

Between friends, students, and peers of similar age, we use the informal pronoun du:
Person A (Anna):
Hallo! Ich bin Anna. Wie heißt du?
