Well, considering just how many languages are actually spoken in Israel, it depends. But, one way to greet someone, using Hebrew would be Shalom (shah-lome). Other languages spoken would be various forms of Arabic and, of course, English.

Before you settle on that decision, you ought to take into account the individual to whom

you're preparing to extend the greeting, including that individual's native language.

If he's an English speaker, it's best to say "Good morning".

To a Norwegian, the best choice is "God morgen". To a German, "Guten Morgen".

If he's a Muslim Arab, you might consider "Salam aleikum"; if Vietnamese, try "chào buổi sáng".

To one of the many Russian immigrants in Israel, "Dobreye utra" would be nice.

To a Navajo tourist, an appropriate choice would be "Yah'ah' teh' ah'bin'eh". To a

Portuguese, "bom dia" is probably better, and to a visiting Spaniard, "buenos dias".

On the slim chance that you've just met someone who was born and raised in Israel, never

studied English in school, never picked up a word of it from movies or TV or friends, and doesn't

understand a word of anything but Hebrew, you should be ready with "BO-kehr TOV".

You can speak in whatever language you wish in Israel, so "good afternoon" works. (Geography does not impact a person's ability to speak.)

Israel has two official languages: Hebrew and Arabic.

Hebrew: Tzohorayim Tovim (צהריים טובים)

Arabic: Masaa Al-Khair (مساء الخير) which actually means "good evening" but is often used for afternoons as well -OR- Thuher Al-Khair (ظهر الخير) which is the proper way to say "good afternoon" but is rarely used.

Though you did not mention which language you want this answer in, I'm guessing you want it in Hebrew (Israel's native language). It is "ברוך הבא לישראל","Baruch Ha'ba Le'Israel"
