Ways to get it wrong

Don't use 'saludar' like 'salute'

'Saludar' means to greet, not to give a military salute.

Use 'a' before people

The 'personal a' is required before direct objects that are people or pets, like 'tu familia'.

A small cultural note

Family is very important in Hispanic cultures, so sending greetings to them is a common and appreciated gesture.
