Be it in the 5 AM morning light or 5 PM afternoon light, a
“hello” is always
appreciated. And that’s because a simple hello is a wonderful and easy way
to begin your
interaction
with anyone at any time of day.
In Polish, there are different ways to greet someone. You can
say
“hello”
in a cute, casual way. You can also say
“hello”
in a non-cute, non-casual way. There are “hello” greetings for
friends. There are also “hello” greetings for strangers and
“hello” greetings for acquaintances. I guess you can say that
there is an appropriate Polish
“hello”
that you can use on any given occasion and conversation. Want to
