Buongiorno! formally and Salve! informally are two Italian equivalents of the English word "Hello!"

Specifically, the masculine adjective buon is "good". The masculine noun giorno means "day". The greeting salvetraces its origins back to Latin and translates as "hello, hi, salutations".

The pronunciations will be "bwon-DJOR-no" and SAL-vey" in Italian.
