Hello in many languages

Explanation:
As indicated above, "hola" is the most appropriate; people also greet each other by saying ¿qué tal? - more informal - like "hi".

But I invite the teacher to take a look at the link below, where greetings and some other simple phrases are given in some 800 languages!
