As much as I know you guys like to chat, then I know you will be able to participate in this day. It is as simple as greeting 10 people, that's it. This demonstrates the importance of personal communication for preserving peace. World Hello Day was begun in response to the conflict between Egypt and Israel in the Fall of 1973. Since then, World Hello Day has been observed by people in 180 countries. Looking for a different way to say Hello to folks? Here are a few to chose from:
*Arabic - subbah-el-kheir (good morning), masaa-el-khair (good evening): note that Kh is pronounced from the back of the throat. mArHAbA (Hello) pronounced Mar-ha-ba
* Cape-Verdean Creole - oi, olá
* Catalan - hola (pronounced o-la), bon dia (pronounced bon dee-ah)good morning, bona tarda (bona tahr-dah) good afternoon, bona nit (bona neet)good night.
*Chinese - In both Cantonese and Mandarin, it is written as 你好. Cantonese is nei ho or lei ho (pronounced nay ho or lay ho) and Mandarin is nǐ hǎo (remember the tones). In Mandarin, you can also say 早上好 (zǎo shàng hǎo) for "Good Morning.
*English - hello (formal), hi (informal), hey (informal,)
* French - salut (informal; silent 't'), bonjour (formal, for daytime use; 'n' as a nasal vowel), bonsoir (good evening; 'n' is a nasal vowel), bonne nuit (good night). There is also "ça va", but this is more often used to mean "how are you?"
*German - hallo (informal), Guten Tag (formal; pronounced gootan taag), Tag (very informal; pronounced taack).
* Hawaiian - aloha
*Scottish, hi (informal) hello (formal)
So no matter what language you say, do your part to keep the personal communication going. Please remember if you have watched New Moon to use the threads on it so it won't ruin it for those that have not seen it yet and yes I have seen it. For all of you traveling, I wish you safe travels to your destination. And last but not least, for those that have a birthday today, you share it with my wonderful webkinz, Moo. | | | 11-21-2009, 12:13 AM | #2 | Katey ate mah Webkinz :) Join Date: Jul 2008 Posts: 9,164 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread Bonjour!!!  | | | 11-21-2009, 12:13 AM | #3 | gupdoo3 Gifted Join Date: Sep 2007 Posts: 4,357 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread Ooh, languages. | | | 11-21-2009, 12:14 AM | #4 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 8,785 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread third??????????? | | | 11-21-2009, 12:14 AM | #5 | I ♥ Cats Webkinz :) Join Date: Dec 2007 Posts: 32,383 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread Hey good morning guys | | | 11-21-2009, 12:15 AM | #6 | gupdoo3 Gifted Join Date: Sep 2007 Posts: 4,357 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread 'Sup peeps? | | | 11-21-2009, 12:16 AM | #7 | COWS4YOU Join Date: Apr 2007 Posts: 56,771 | Re: Guten Tag, it's the November 21st Chat Thread  Originally Posted by Jenbug12 Bonjour!!!
