When I answer the phone I state my first name so the caller knows they called the right person. Americans usually just answer with a 'Yes?' or 'Hello?'. This is because americans are not polite and considerate people.But thirdies just pick up the phone and wait for the caller to speak first.
I don't give out my name in case it's a scammer or a murderer checking to see if I'm home
i breathe in and out very loudly whenever its an unknown number
Brukar runka i luren och dunka kuken i luren
i used to answer with my last name but now i just say >Haloo?
