SHLONKUM, SHI`LOOMKUM, SHAKHBARKUM

Explanation:
Since you did not explaine your intended audience (male, female, one person, many, etc.), the above are for the plural, which is sometimes used even in addressing one individual.

These are "localized" colloquial expressions.

شاكو ماكو

Explanation:
This is what I hear from my son-in-law, who is from Mosul, every time he rings us. Maybe it is different in other areas of Iraq.

أشلونك (للمذكر) / أشلونج (للمؤنث) - شو الأخبار - كيف الحال

Explanation:
Either of the terms above are used in Iraq; the first two are very colloquial.

The last two are used equally in Gluf and Pan-Arab countries.
