How Many?
How many different ways are there to greet one another...both verbal and non-verbal......
This site attracts people from many different countries, er I think. So I figured it'd be interesting to see how many different greetings we can think of.....including different ways to sasy"hello"
Bonjour.....Aloha.....Hi...Hello....etc.

Being Welsh I would say hello in Welsh, but I can't speak Welsh which is strange seeing I'm Welsh, but people who speak Welsh are usually rude and too Welsh anyway.
I'm just English-speaking South Welsh.

It's a form of greeting so I'd say so, then wazzup would count too.

Ciao is like Aloha then.
I never knew Italian was used in Greece! I thought they spoke Greek!
