Guest Soiboist Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) "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.

nina.zupancic Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Živjo or Zdravo, means in Slovenian Hey. but otherwise you could also use more of english or italian version of saying Hi, by saying Hej (Hay), or Čaw (Cao)... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

funny10sport Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 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 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Pronounced Ged-ay mae, the 'T' is silent unless you say it really slow then you would emphasis the T)Hooroo - goodbyeHow are you going? (pronounced: howyagoin try to slur it.

swampy Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Macedonian: Здраво (zdravo) -- Hi Literally translates to "healthy" Добро утро (Dobro utro) -- Good morning Добар ден (Dobar den) -- Good day/afternoon Добро вечер (Dobro vecher) -- Good evening The correct one is probably Добра вечер (Dobra) because evening is a feminine noun but I'm from Skopje (we kinda mix Macedonian with small bits of Serbian) Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
