Slang for "hello" in Spanish?

Question

they teach u like formal spanish in school.....do spanish speakers actually say "hola".....you know how we supposedly say "hello" but no one actually does....we say "hi" is it the same in spanish? Any other slang terms would be great too.

Answer 1

well, you can also use "Que Tal" or "Que Pasa"slang for whats happening but its all in how you deliver it. Dont say it as a question say it with confidence and it means the same as Hi.

Answer 2

Hello In Spanish Slang

Answer 3

In Spanish the way to say "hi" comes with the country or area where you are. In Panama "hi" is much longer "Que paso" as if something that had happened is necessary to start the conversation. In Mexico the "hi" greating could be much longer than in Panama, in Mexico you might say "Que honda" not the motorcycle Honda but "honda" meaning a wave. In Cuba it might be "Que Bola" or in other words what is rolling.

I hope this help with the "hi" in Spanish.
