It is another confusing stuff for me, because I am getting answers after my question: how are you? 1. I am good. 2. I am well.
I tried to find which one is correct and I found that both are correct. For me it is a bit difficult to accept, until I will not get the reason why both answers are right.
I addition, I'm good sounds arrogant.
I believe in the people who are answering here.
Best Answer
Good (adjective): such as should be desired or approved, right, satisfactory; sound, unimpaired; not depressed or dejected.
Well (adverb): free or recovered from illness; in a satisfactory state or position.
One can safely answer with either response and be grammatically correct, however the manner in which the question (How are you?) is asked must be kept in context.
If someone is clearly inquiring about your health, “I’m well,” is the normal response. If it is clear you are in good health, either responses are correct; although some people prefer to use “well” in more formal situations.
