Hello there
I read a post here asking about the use of 'good to hear from you'.
The reply was that using 'nice to hear from you' is better than 'good to hear from you'
I've always used 'Good to hear from you' Is that wrong?and if so what are the uses of 'good to hear from you'
Thank you
No, saying 'good to hear from you' to a friend does not imply you are upset, nor would it be rude. It's just a very subtle difference, a bit like the difference between 'I like you' and 'I really like you'.
