Temat: the greetings thread

English, being diverse and multi-cultural, has different forms
of verbal greetings depending on age, region, nationality, social group etc.

One greeting per posting, please. Let's see how many different ones we can come up with.

Sorry Andrew but the word: Salute means /Greet in a friendly way/

As one of my professors who taught me the History of English Language had said such sentence one day, that: "The English Language was, and it's like a whore, with all those borrowed/ stolen European words" -(Don't be offended, I think that English is one of the best languages)

Don't be sorry Klejment. But the word salute on its own is not a greeting in English.

Dave, (my name is Lukas by the way ;)

It might be like you say, as it's an act of greeting with friendly words and gestures like bowing or lifting the hat.

On the other hand I don't think I did a huge mistake, as long as Saluting is "an act of greeting, expressed through our body language" ;)

Peace
