Other possibilities include using the expressions for the time of the day such as 'Jo napot' (good morning/good day) or 'Jo estet' for 'good evening'.

If you look at \'http://www.elite.net/~runner/jennifers/ you can see all the options (with the correct punctuation) for Hungarian, there are at least four ways. \"Szia\" is for one person (singular) and is informal. \"Sziasztok\" is for more than one person. You can also say \"Szervusz\" (singular) and \"Szervusztok\" (plural). HTH. |
