if you are far away from a person, you wave and say "hej" or "goddag".

if close you smile and give each other a good handshake, not too loose but don't press too hard - pressing too hard should only be between friends. but pressing too loose can mean that you are gay or very feminine.

You can always say "hej", sounds like "high" in English. "goddag" is more formal. "God at møde dig" = nice to meet you. "Hejsa" is more friendly when approaching kids and old friends.

Smile and we danes will smile back - if not, we are angry, shy, sizing you up, playing a joke on you... :-)
