摘要：This paper aims to compare the structure of telephone conversation opening in Iran between males and females with particular attention to the “how are you” sequence. Natural data are 30 recorded telephone conversations by both males and females in different age groups. The data are transcribed for analysis to see how these two groups perform their telephone conversation openings. Due to the differences in their nature, there seems some considerable differences will be observed between the males and the females not only in the “how are you” section but also in the selection of words.
