Simply saying "vanakkam" is the most common way of greeting someone in Tamil. It is used in both formal and informal situations. However, using "vāḻttukkaḷ" or "congratulations" is preferred in formal situations.
== Cultural Insights ==
 
Tamil culture places great emphasis on respect and hierarchy. When greeting someone, it is important to address them using the appropriate honorifics, which are based on age and social status. For example, "Periyama" is used to greet an elder or someone in a position of authority. This reflects the value Tamil society places on respecting elders and those in higher positions.
 
In Tamil Nadu, the traditional way of greeting is by folding hands and saying "Vanakkam." This gesture, known as "Namaste," signifies respect and humility. It is common to see people of all ages and backgrounds using this greeting in both formal and informal settings.
 
Tamil culture also values personal relationships and community. When introducing yourself, it is common to mention your family members and their occupations. This reflects the importance of family and the interconnectedness of the community in Tamil society.
