Differences between «How are you?», «How are you doing?» and «How do you do?»

What are the main differences between the three sentences written below? When should we use these greetings?

3 Answers 3

“How do you do” in modern American English is a formal noise made upon meeting someone. It rarely, if ever, indicates actual Interest in an answer. It can be acknowledged by repeating the same phrase back, or by saying “Very well, and you?”, to which the answer is also “Very well”. It can be abused as an opportunity to seize control of the conversation by interpreting it as one of the others, but that’s rude.

“How are you doing” is a more general inquiry about how your life is going. Depending on context and intonation, it can range from another ritual greeting (fine, and you?) to a deep expression of concern (which can be brushed off with the ritual answer or given a more meaningful response).

Exceptions abound, but those are the most common usage patterns in my dialect, anyway. (NE US)

The three forms of greetings are classed as pleasantries by language experts. Depending on context, and to whom you are speaking, each form of greeting has its own implication and meaning. But generally speaking they are all used when meeting a person, an acquaintance or even a dear friend.

How are you? (red line)
Perhaps the most common form of greeting or salutation today. Depending on context the person asking may be genuinely interested in hearing about the other person’s wellbeing or health. In many cases the greeting is said as a way to open a dialogue or bridge an embarrassing pause in the conversation. With that said, it is often used as a means of polite introduction and can be quite formal; however, the person asking is not really interested in hearing about your medical history, he or she is only being polite. The usual reply (with all its variations) is: «Oh, I’m fine, thanks. And you?«

How do you do (blue line)
The most formal and polite form of greeting someone. Nowadays it is rarely said among acquaintances, friends and never between family members. Perhaps if you were introduced to the Queen or a member of the British Cabinet you might use the occasion to express this nicety. It sounds terribly British, and today it’s often interpreted as being rather cool and aloof. It used to be the norm to repeat the salutation with the same exact words, «How do you do» without the rising intonation at the end.

The following Ngram chart displays the frequency of use. Please note however that it does not reflect how often native speakers say these greetings to one another, the chart should be seen as only an indication of popularity in print.

For further reference on the usage of «How are you?» and «How do you do?» see the BBC website: Learning English

Difference between «How are you?» and «How are you doing?»

I’ve heard a lot of times that there is a major difference between saying:

Is that true? I’ve heard one was like an extension of “Hello” and does not mean anything, so you should not answer it with “Fine, thank you. What about you?” but also with “How are you (doing)?” But I just don’t remember which of them means what.

In England, «How do you do?» was until recently a commonplace greeting. The correct response was, «How do you do?» This may be what you’re thinking of.

Both «How are you?» and «How are you doing?» should generally be taken as a question, to which the reply is often, «Fine, thanks!» or, more formally, «Very well, thank you.» However, the whole thing continues to confuse even English people, let alone visitors.

In my experience as a native speaker in the Middle Atlantic region, there is a slight difference. «How are you?» is a bland greeting for someone you haven’t seen for a while, while «How are you doing?» spoken in full (as opposed to being shortened to «Howyadoin?») may be an actual inquiry. The latter is more common when there is some expectation that the subject might not be doing well.

For example: «Hey, haven’t seen you in ages! How are you?» versus «Sorry to hear about the diagnosis. How are you doing?» «I haven’t seen you since the funeral — how are you doing?» «How are you doing: is the new baby still keeping you up all night?»

«How are you?» should never be answered negatively or in too much detail. «Great,» «Fine,» and «Can’t complain» are all appropriate. «How are you doing?» may be answered the same way, but it also allows for a more honest and possibly more detailed response if you’re on close enough terms with the person asking.

There’s no real difference between ‘How are you?’ and ‘How are you doing?’ except the first asks for a statement of condition and the second asks for a statement of your fortunes. A reply to ‘How are you?’ should not sound like a list of medical ailments, misfortunes or stock market winnings. A simple ‘Couldn’t be better!’ is better. For a reply to ‘How are you doing?’a quick and positive answer is ‘Never better!’ These replies strike a note of cautious optimism and they are far more original than ‘Fine, thanks.’

I’m not a native speaker but I’ve spent some time in the US and studied English linguistics. I think that «How are you?» is a little bit more formal than «How are you doing?».

You would say «How are you?» when you don’t know the person very well, or when you meet someone for the first time, whereas you would say «How are you doing?» when you already know someone, or act as if you already knew them. So «How are you doing?» is more warmful but it can be felt as a little too friendly in a formal context. Here’s an example from a rap song:

Hey how ya doin’? Sorry ya can’t get through Why don’t you leave your name And your number And I’ll get back to you

Ring Ring Ring ( Ha Ha Hey) De La Soul

Now, «How do you do?» is a set phrase in formal English and is considered as old-fashioned. When you met someone for the first time you would say «How do you do?» and the person would reply «How do you do?», in a reciprocical way and with a handshake shared by both persons who meet, so the meaning was broadly that of «Nice to meet you».

As a consequence, «How do you do?» lost the meaning of a real question but it used to have the meaning of a real one : when you meet someone it is polite to ask if that person is doing well.

In France, when you meet someone for the first time, you can say «Enchanté!», which literally means «enchanted» or «delighted», but it’s a set phrase too which has greatly lost its original meaning. This way of greeting people is old-fashioned, just like «How do you do?» in English. It may also sound too polite or a bit snobbish.

What’s more, I would like to point out that the verb DO is polysemous; «How are you doing?» has not the same meaning as «What are you doing?». There are other examples:

Okay, Jimmy, that does it! (That’s enough! Stop it!)

Well, I guess that does it.(Alright, that’s a deal)

Good, that will do for today. (That will be enough)

How are you guys doing here? (Waitress addressing customers : Is everything all right?)

DO is a process verb: you can proceed through an action, that is perform an action (do one’s duty, do one’s homework, do the dishes), or you can proceed through an appreciation, as in «The firm doing great». You can even «do time» if you go to prison.

You can also compare «How are you doing?» and «How is it going?», which have about the same meaning. In this case you’re going nowhere in the common sense of the verb GO, but there’s still the abstract idea of motion as you ask a question that carries out a motion through an appreciation.

I believe that space and time are fundamental notions in the study of languages : if you go somewhere it takes some time, as when you do something it also takes some time.

Take the word «fare» for instance: it comes from from the Old English verb faran, “to journey.” In modern usage, to fare usually doesn’t mean “to travel,” but we do still talk about seafarers, “those who travel on the sea,” and wayfarers, those who travel along the roads.

Also from faran is the word farewell, now a synonym for goodbye. It’s a shortening of “May you fare well.”, Good bye coming from May God be with you.

In modern usage, to fare usually means “to do” or “to get along“:

How did you fare on your exam? I don’t think he’s faring too well in his new job.

In British English, a fare is also «the charge for using transport», transportation in American English. Now, tranportation takes time to go from one place to another.
