Hola in Mexico, in Spain, and all the south countries... well, not in Brazil of course...
By the way... "Hola, como estas?, meaning "Hello, how are you? Have a nice day

we don't say hello... we walk up to one another, grab each other's forearm, pull each other close and lick each other's ear lobe.
for some reason, everyone here is really nice, we never have war, the birth rate skyrockets every year and we have the cleanest ears on the planet.

it's an easy question, but difficult when your answer is limited to words. describing sound isn't that hard i could look it up in the dictionary and get the phonetic spelling of it but most peopole can't read it anyway so i'm not going to waiste my time

Many ways to say "hi" in my language, Finnish.
for example:
Hello (=terve, moi, päivää)
How are you doing? (=miten menee?)
Bye (=moikka, heippa, näkemiin)
