How do you say 'hello' in Macedonian?

Answer 1

Macedonian is a dialect of Greek. In ancient times it was a doric form of Greek but in modern times it has developed along modern Greek lines with a little variance.

To say Hello like in the rest of Greece, say "Yassou". Pronounce it "YAH-soo". This phrase is best suited for informally saying hello to one person. Smile as you say it - be friendly! Bear in mind that "Yassou" is only a rough English rendition of the Greek pronunciation. The word is sometimes spelled "giasou" or "ya su". You can also shorten the phrase to "ya" in an informal setting.

• Say "Yassas" (pronounced "YAH-sas") in formal situations, or when you're informally greeting two or more people at the same time. Use this formal version if you're addressing a stranger or an older person.
• Technically, the somewhat more informal "yassou" is best suited to use with people you know and people much younger than you. However, you will hear both used interchangeably, so you don't need to worry much about getting it "right".

And alternative to hello is Chaírete (Χαίρετε) used in both formal and informal situations.
