Good Reasons for Saying Hello

Do you find that your telephone voice is not understood? I stumbled upon a linguistic student’s observations about this problem. She explains that the first two syllables in a telephone conversation are never registered, at least until the listener is aided by context. She then explains that just by saying “Hello” your voice will be recognized more easily and understood better.

Here is a link to her interesting discussion.
