How do you do? – How do you do?

Or :

 May I introduce you to Mr. Jody?.....… This is Mr.Tedy.

How do you do – how do you do. or Pleased to meet you – Pleased to meet

you. (especially in the USA). Remember that “How do you do” is only used

after introductions, and cannot be used for later meetings.

If there is no third person to introduce you, you can say :

 May I introduce myself? My name is (‘s) Doni.

How do you do? My name is (‘s) Mary.

Note : Men do not call themselves Mr. They use either their Christian name

and surname as above, or just their surname.

Women normally use both Christian name and surname; they may

add Mrs, or Miss to avoid confusion.

Introducing a speaker: widow / widower

 If you are introducing a speaker you should say (indicating the speaker with

your hand):

Ladies and gentlemen, Professor Iwan.

or :

 Ladies and gentlemen, I have great pleasure introducing our guest speaker.

General Subki Anwar.
