I've heard a lot of Chinese folk say something to each other which sounds like "Neehow" or "Neehao". What does that mean?
Also how would I say in Mandarin, "Help",
"Sorry",
"Ambulance",
"Thank you".
These might seems strange, but I think those would be far more useful phrases for strangers who found themselves in bother abroad.

Help: jiu ming!
Sorry:dui bu qi.
Ambulance:jiu hu che!

I'm not Chinese but i think that "Wey Neehow" translates into English as "Hello can i help you".
Japanese answer the phone saying something that sounds very much like "Washing Machine", but i don't know what it means.
