No matter how busy you are, hearing a simple “how are you” from family and friends is always a little special. However, sometimes it does make you wonder if you’re supposed to answer the “how are you” question with a very common reply of “I’m fine” or with a more telling answer that is a bit meatier than your two-word phrase. Perhaps, if you’re in that situation, any reply you say is totally okay because there is no right or wrong reaction here. Whatever you want to share and say is very much up to you. Now, “how are you” has many versions in English. But this question is not only available in this language. In fact, Spanish has its own list of variations as well. What are they? Let’s find out!
