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.

If you mean how do they say hello?

They say "Ciao" (pronounced chow)

or you can say "buon giorno", "buona sera" "buona mattina" or "buon notte"
