As there are so many anglophiles in so many countries around the world I thought it would be great to exchange greetings in their languages.  That doesn't exclude the other english speaking parts of the world because I am sure you have your own style of greeting each other!

This is Zulu for Good morning. How are you?

Sanibona. Unjani?

And in Afrikaans

Goeiemore. Hoe gaan dit met u?

South African slang

Howzit?

Aloha.

That would be hello or welcome in Hawaiian (it also means goodbye, and a number of other things). Don't waste words, these Islanders.
