Saat sesuatu yang baik terjadi terhadap teman, keluarga, rekan kerja seperti pada konteks pernikahan, lulusan, mendapatkan prmosi jabatan, pertunangan, kelahiran bayi, memenangkan pertandingan dan sebagainya, sudah seharusnya kita mengucapkan selamat akan hal tersebut. Ucapan selamat bisa kita berikan melalui berbagai media, seprti ucapan lisan atau tulisan. Ucapan lisan lebih mudah karena bisa melalui telepon, video calling, atau ucapan langsung. Pada bentuk tulisan bisa kita berikan melalui kartu ucapan (greeting card).
