How to use "Acquaintance" in context?
First impressions are important. They can determine whether or not we'll want to spend time around someone or if we'll move on as soon as possible. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't get the opportunity to get to know someone properly because we only interact with them once or twice. However, just because we don't have a lot of interaction doesn't mean that we can't form a strong connection with them.
There are a few things that you can do to make sure that you form a good acquaintance with someone. First, be interested in them and ask questions. This will help you get to know them better and make them feel comfortable talking to you.
