"Hej tjockis" is a classic Swedish greeting that will ensure your social success when visiting our noble country.
Pronounced hey, followed by a combination of shock and is. Shock mustn't be American because it will sound ridiculous, I think a British pronounciation will do.

In the beginning of this clip, a Swedish hockey player is greeting his friend this way. However, he uses "Hörru tjockis" instead, which is a bit more informal, but you can still hear how to say tjockis.

I'm haf indian and part filipino but since hindi was already said... I got Tagalog

Just some everyday greetings/words
Kumusta?  - How are you? (usually we use this as "hello" as well)
Mabuti po naman. - I'm fine.
Salamat - Thank you.
Wala pong anuman - You are welcome.
Anong oras na po? - What time is it?
Mahal kita- I love you

And for all those people out there who dont know, Tagalog is not "Tagging" a "log," it's the main filipino language
