It is difficult to pinpoint the exact first person to say "hi" as language has evolved over thousands of years. The word "hi" itself is believed to have originated in the 19th century as a shortened form of "hello." However, it is likely that some form of greeting similar to "hi" has been used by humans for centuries as a way to acknowledge and communicate with one another.
