metadata.value: The article focuses on the text type greeting in German and Russian languages. It
  aims at identifying lexical and grammatical means of corporate greeting in German
  language culture. The study is novel in that it discusses contemporary corporate
  greetings in German and in Russian as a part of the language politeness. The methods
  used in the study include continuous sampling method, lexical and semantical
  analysis, and comparison. The greetings under discussion consist of three obligatory
  (address, wishes and signature) and two extra parts (introduction and gratitude). The
  introduction aims at establishing of festive mood and can have a quote in German
  greetings. In Russian congratulations, the introduction is rare, in certain cases it is
  replaced with congratulation on a holiday. The reason why in German texts there is
  no congratulation is the fact that the congratulation is written on a card which has
  pre-printed greeting. There are semantical differences between Russian and German
  wishes. The Russians tend to express wishes for the whole upcoming year. They
  are about job and private life of an addressee. The Germans focus their wishes on
  Christmas, and an addressee is supposed to spend it in a quiet company of relatives
  and friends. The wishes on New Year’s Day are similar to Russian ones. The difference
  in wishes partly would raise from the difference in calendars: While the Germans
  celebrate Christmas right after working days, the Russians have it at the end of a series
  of days-off at the beginning of January.
