Hi guys, super useful lesson but… question: ” how is it going?” exists?
This is the first alternative to “how are you” that comes to my mind but I didn’t find it in your lesson…is it just something I have created or is it correct? Thanks and so grateful for all the commitment and passion you have for us students 🙏🤗!!!
