Don't tongue tie on occasions.(Issue)

Many people become nearly tongue-tied when they want to meet other people. For those of us who find starting conversations with strangers difficult, thefollowing four strategies may be useful. Notice that each is developed in question form, inviting the other person to respond. One approach is to introduce yourself, giving your name and asking the name of the other person. "Hi, I'm Ingrid. And who are you? " A second approach is to refer to the physical setting in a question. You might, for example, make such a comment as, "This is auful weather for a game, isn't it?" Aother approach is to give the other person a compliment and ask a question related to it. You might say, for instance, "Your braid looks great. Did it take long to do?" Finally, you can seek direct information from the other person. At a working gathering, you can ask such a question as, "Which department do you work in?" At a party, you might say, "Tom gives a really nice party. How do you know them?"
