The most common greeting is 'xerete', which kinda means 'hello' put in posh-talk. The second most common greeting is 'yia', which is short of 'yiasou'. This means both 'hello' and 'goodbye'. Merhaba, Selam or Hosgeldin are commonly used greetings in the Turkish Republic of Cyprus.

You also have greetings such as good morning, "Kalimera", good evening "Kalispera" and Good night, "Kalee neekhta".

But if you want to greet them with a 'Cyprian' way you will say 'Sheretume'!!!:p
