Chinese Greetings

Edit

Hello

* 你好。Nǐ hǎo; The standard "hello" greeting.
* 您好。Nín hǎo; The same "hello" greeting as above, except that it is used for someone you treat with respect, like an elder or a teacher.
* 你好吗? Nǐ hǎo ma; More often used following a greeting than not, however, this can be used as a "hello" by itself.
* 您好吗? Nín hǎo ma; The same as the "Nǐ hǎo ma" above, except that it is used for someone you treat with more respect, like an elder or a teacher.
* 你怎么样? Nǐ zěnme yàng?; "What's up?", "How are you doing?"
* 幸会 Xìng huì! "Nice to meet you!"
* 久仰 Jiǔyǎng; An extremely polite greeting that is not commonly used between friends, but rather between professionals meeting for the first time.
* 久闻大名 Jiǔwén dàmíng; This greeting should be reserved for use towards those whom you have extreme respect for. Literal translation: "Your name is famous" / "I have heard much about you"
