This is the simplest way to say “hello” in German. It's a friendly, all-purpose greeting that can be used in pretty much any situation, formal or informal.
Guten Tagis the German “hello” that's best-known to English speakers. It's slightly formal, but only slightly. Guten means “good” (it's the masculine accusative form of gut). Easy! Now just add the right word for the time of day: 1. Before midday: say guten Morgen(good morning) 2. Midday until approximately 6pm: say guten Tag(good day) 3. 6pm until...
If you live or travel in Germany, you'll hear people saying alles klarall the time. It means “everything (is) clear!”. It can be used as a question (alles klar?) a statement, or merely to fill empty space. What we care about here is that it's also used as a greeting, especially by young people. Greeting someone with “alles klar?” is a lot like gree...
Was ist los? is hard to translate directly. The adjective los roughly means “separate” or “free”. Asking someone was ist los? is like saying “what's up?” or “what's going on?”, very similar to greeting someone with alles klar?

When informally addressing a group, say Wie geht es euch? The phra...

So for the next few items on this list, we'll look at some greetings that are unique to certain areas. Grüß Gottis an expression that's mainly used in Bavaria (south-eastern German...
Servusis Latin for “servant”, and its use as a greeting comes from a Latin phrase meaning “at your service”. Like Grüß Gott, servusis mainly used in Bavaria and Austria. It can also be used to say goodbye
Let's move to the other end of the German map. Moin is a common greeting in northern Germany, especially in and around Hamburg. You also sometimes hear people doubling it up: moin moin! The origins of the word “moin” are uncertain. Many think that it comes from a regional pronunciation of Morgen(“morning”), but it's possible that it also comes from...
Nais another regional German greeting. It's common in the north, and people from Southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland tend to struggle with it. I can't blame them, because it's hard to explain. There's no easy way to translate nainto English. It's best explained by example: when two (northern) Germans meet, one might say “na”, to which the oth...
This one might not technically count as a greeting, but it's still worth including, because you're likely to say it when meeting someone… but only if you're notmeeting face-to-face. Let me explain: Imagine you're calling, texting, emailing, or otherwise communicating at a distance with someone who already knows you. If they don't recognise your voi...
