Hello Explanation: It's hello, as in the equivalent of "Bonjour!" or "Guten Tag!". It's formal (i.e. it's not "Hi!") and it's used during the daylight hours. Later in the day one says "Dobry wieczor!". Probably an English equiv would be "Good day!", but that sounds a bit prissy to me... Regards, Brian |

"good morning" or "good day" Explanation: This is a common phrase used on an everyday basis as "good morning" or "good day" is in English. It's a greeting, in this case you'd have to find out what time of day they were in when they were actually saying it. |
