how does one say good morning in japanese

Japanese translation:Ohayou (gozaimasu)
Explanation:
"Ohayou" alone is a bit colloquial.
"Ohayou gozaimasu" is a more formal, polite form.
"Ohha" is a trendy, very colloquial word (which could be listen in a recent pop song ^-^). Perhaps a bit childish ?

Hope it helps....
