  -> Thank you , Jina! And thanks for the additional information as well.
agree  Kamran Nadeem: good translation juilia and more appriciable as you are learning the language.I think hello is as commonly used in HINDI as in ENGHISH and the word used so frequently in the language at mass level becomes the part of it.
