our age
just HEY and smile

older
i have a tendency to bow.. like a slight bow
its sorta annoying but im so use to it now
dammit

people i dont know
wave

[vivientww]

I only say Hello if I really want to talk to you.
If not, then Hi. Or I'll just smile.

[YUNICA]

i only say "hey" or "hello" or a lil wave for now. =)

[xx.nehaluvsyooh]

depends on how well i know the person and how old they are
if its my friends im probably gonna say
hi hi or hey
if its someone im meeting for the first time or someone older
id prolly say
Hi!!
i dont say hello it sounds to formal to mee
its not really my thing

[evoJDM pauL]

To guys my age:
"Hey"
"Yo"
"What's up"
(all of the above usually followed by a handshake, or a nod of greeting)

To girls my age:
"Hi 'insert name here'"
(usually followed by a wave)

When meeting strangers my age and older:
"Hi, I'm 'insert my name here'" (usually followed by a handshake)
When they initiate by saying the above, I say "Likewise"

To people I know of higher status:
"Hello, professor."
"Hello, sir."
"Good morning/afternoon/evening 'insert status here'"
(These are usually only followed by a smile after the first meeting which is done with a handshake)

I dunno, to me handshakes are really important in terms of greetings. I was brought up that way.

Pretty much what he said, except I don't say "yo"

It just doesn't fit me.

[siabyul]

hi, hey, ayyy, annyoung, their name (: depending on who they are .

[killsalarm]

With friends it's usually:

What's Up? , Hey , Yo , Their Name , or the Head Tilt

Stangers:

Hi, Hello.

Older/Elders/Teacher

Hello Sir/Mam.

Good Morning, Good Evening, etc.

[rawrasaur]

"hey whatsup" with a headsup

i feel dumb everytime i do it. I need to stop

[menelausee]

i look

.

[hiswendy]

"Hi!" or "Hey!" in a cheerful way.
To older people, "Hi, good evening/afternoon/morning" with a more timid smile.

[flyaway.]

Hey or hi. Or depending how far I am away from that person, I might just smile and nod.

[Rhawr]

"Hi!" or "Hey!" with excitement and a wave with a smile =)

[ebolainmemphis]

quick "sup" - for guys
"hey" with a smile - for girls (doesn't matter if interested in them)

[AsianAsian]

If its to my home boys I would be like Aiyo Whats Good, B.
then i'll do our handshake or just a regular handshake into a little shoulder bump.

For girls i usually yell out "hey!!" and then ill get a hug [=
but if they're too far away or walking opposite of me down the hall ill just smile.

For like other people ill just say "whats up?"
and smile.

[Redux-Analogy]

I usually start off with a "Hi!' How are you!"

That's the standard...for everybody. LOL.

[SJAMES]

a simple, "hey!" or "what's up?"
or if we have an inside joke xD
or nicknames like my friend calls me Ka Patrol...lol
he goes" KA PATROOOOOL!!"
xD

[pandriuma]

"hey ___!"

or when i don't give a hoot
"what's up __?"
only because i realized if i cared it'd sound really awkward, so "what's up?" pops up every now and then.

"hi/hello _bigger authority_"

and with elder asians and i only do this with elder asians i don't know but am forced to introduced myself too,
i bow and "vietnamese greet"

it's a slight bow. but i find myslef the only doing it when all my other cousins just stand there and "vietnamese greeting."

[kikyomai~]

To acquaintances I like
I will look at him/her and if he/she looks my way, I will smile

To acquaintances I don't like
I will rummage my bag for nothing, or pretend that I am texting, or just look straight ahead as if I did not see him/her

To friends
"Oi!" then smile and wave

To elders
"Hello po." or "Good morning/afternoon/evening po."
(po is a word in our country that is used when you talk in a polite manner)
or, same as To acquaintances I don't like

[lalagladys]

hehehe, depends on who .
Teacher : Hello, Good morning/afternoon
Teacher (friends with): YO! WHAAAATSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDD???!!
Friend : Aye there cutie . ;D
Random Adult : Hello, Good Morning/afternoon. (:

[parkshinlee7]

If it's a really close frind then i wave and say "HEY!" or "ANNYONG!"...
But if it's someone i don't know that well, i wave or whisper "Hi"..
