Greeting is a common behaviour of communicative intercourse and an important method to establish a social relationship among people.A simple greeting can make us not only to know the structural characteristics from its language surface,but also to understand its convocation of its national culture. An analysis and research of greeting in Chinese language not only help us to deepen understanding for the evolution and development of Chinese Han culture,but also to guide teaching in pragmatics in foreign Chinese teaching.Meanwhile,what is more,to help foreign students lessen and lower language mistakes and errors in across-cultural communication.Chinese greeting is taken as a research object and its research content includes types, features and influent factors in Chinese greeting and situation about how Kazakhstuden t From Kazakhstan use Chinese greetings. First of all, we should analyse Chinese Greetings Thoroughly,considerately,we can classify Chinese greeting into four types of"Addressing, Greeting improvising and Casually-questioned and answered ", and we also summarize Chinese greeting four characteristics,namely,conciseness,opening,conversion and variety; and influent factors in the ligut of pragmatics, semantics and ethnic culture. Secondly, we check how Kazakh students form Kazakhstan use Chinese greetings by the means of questioner, data statistics, individual visiting and recording. Its result indicates that foreign Students have some misunderstanding and even have no idea for some part of Chinese greetings;foreign students inclined to greeting types and improvising types; foreignStudent don't have recognition in conversion of Chinese greeting.Although foreign students attach importance to language situation and communication, they have misunderstanding and default in pragmatics of Chinese greetings.
