ද 和吗语气词一样吗？

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”

En el Día Internacional de la Mujer quiero rendir homenaje a algunas mujeres españolas que fueron pioneras y de alguna u otra manera rompieron estereotipos, desafiaron a la sociedad y abrieron el camino a las mujeres que veníamos detrás. Mujeres valientes que merecen ser reconocidas.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio, una vez que lo escuches, dime qué te ha parecido y si conocías a alguna de estas mujeres, o es la primera vez que escuchas sobre ellas. Además, si conoces a otra mujer española que haya hecho historia, ¡compártela!
