Begrüßungsformen

Greetings

In German you greet people differently depending on the time of day. The polite form starts with "Guten …", while informally you just say "Hallo".

Examples: Guten Morgen, Frau Meier! (Good morning, Mrs Meier!) · Hallo, wie geht's? (Hi, how are you?)

To say goodbye, use Auf Wiedersehen (formal) or Tschüss (informal).
