Сказка о рыбаке и  рыбке  часть 3

If you want to say HELLO, it depends on the time of day.
If it's morning, it's better to say ДОБРОГО РАНКУ.
If it's afternoon, it's ДОБРИЙ ДЕНЬ
If it is evening - then ДОБРИЙ ВЕЧІР or ДОБРОГО ВЕЧОРА
If it's night -- ДОБРОЇ НОЧІ
If you want to wish someone good night, you can use the previous phrase or ДОБРАНІЧ
It is also possible to say ВІТАЮ, but this word has two meanings: HELLO or Congratulations
These are formal greetings.
However, if you're talking to a friend, it's okay to say ПРИВІТ.

So how to say goodbye or bye? 
Goodbye is до побачення. By the way, побачення means “a date” and до in this context means “till”, but this phrase still means “goodbye”.
If you want to say “see you”, you can say “до зустрічі”. 
These are kind of formal ones.
And if you are talking to a friend and want to say “bye”, you can say:
– па-па (bye bye)
– бувай (bye)
So we can say it like “Як справи”.
“Як ти” – which is informal.

And what should we answer? 
We can say: 
Добре – which means good.
Дуже добре – very good 
Нормально – normal
Не дуже – not much. As I have said before, дуже – means very. So we literally say “not very”.
Чудово – great
Погано – bad
It is also possible to say “непогано” which means “not bad”

ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE: El Expreso de la Medianoche: Un Enigmático Juego parte 2.


Tras el aparente cierre del caso del banquero asesinado, el detective se vio envuelto en una nueva serie de eventos extraños. Visiones recurrentes del niño autista, mensajes crípticos en el diario del banquero y la reaparición de la joya robada lo llevaron a una conclusión aterradora: el caso estaba lejos de resolverse.

Descubrió que la sociedad secreta a la que pertenecía el banquero era mucho más antigua y poderosa de lo que imaginaba. Sus rituales ocultos y sus conocimientos prohibidos estaban relacionados con una reliquia ancestral, y la joya robada era una pieza fundamental para activarla.

El detective, junto con el niño autista, se embarcó en una peligrosa búsqueda a través de Europa, siguiendo las pistas dejadas por la sociedad secreta. Descubrieron que el tren Orient Express era solo una pieza de un rompecabezas mucho más grande, y que el asesinato del banquero era parte de un plan milenario para desatar una fuerza oscura sobre el mundo.
