My fiance (who is American) and I talk about this all the time. She says that they are not. However, listening to our Spanish language tape the other day, it said that they do, and you should specify North, Central or South America? Any experiences like this?

For example, I can see why we would say "Good day" or "greetings," because those make sense, but why "hello"? Is it because of the derivation?

Insight please.

There is a greeting around the East Midlands of the UK (Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire etc) which is "Ey up me duck". Basically this means "Hello mate". or "Hello my dear". What is the origin of this phrase and in particular, why is "duck" used for "mate" or "dear"? This has been puzzling me for a long time!
