HELLO :)
2:59 PMWhenever we meet someone for the first time, in our life or in the day, the first word that comes to our lips is 'hello'. Though we might say it in different ways and different language, the essence of the 'greeting' remains the same. Though we are aware of the terms used to greet or say hello to a person in our language, it might not be possible to use it always. This holds especially true in case of people who indulge in international traveling and visit new places every now and then. In such a situation, it would be helpful if you at least learn the terms used for saying 'hello' in the native language. In case you need any help regarding the same, just go through the information provided in the lines below.
