[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: I always wondered about the affectation of utilizing the word "cheers"as a sign off or when you say goodbye to someone in person. Ive noticed alot of State Department folks or those who travel internationally frequently do this like they're in some private club or something. I thought "cheers" was for clinking glasses and having a beer. Must be a Washington DC thing.....[/quote] They write lots of formal emails to their bosses and colleagues in other Embassies. "Sincerely, Hillary" sounds stilted in a many emails, depending on the context. Nobody who speaks English goes for the the French "Please accept the sincere expression of my best wishes...." Another sign-off that also works well is "Best, Hillary", but this doesn't work so well in conversation. "Cheers" works well in many contexts.[/quote]
