How do I say "Hello, how are you?" in German to a female friend?

Answer 1

informal : "Hallo, wie gehts?"
formal : "Guten Tag, wie geht es Ihnen?"

Answer 2

For that particular phrase, there's not a different way to say it with a female or male. It's only formal or informal. Granted, there are a few things you say differently with a female friend than a male friend, but "Hello, How are you?" isn't one of them.

"Hallo, wie Geht's?" is pretty standard. You don't really need to be formal with friends.

I think Breezer was trying to say that "wie geht's" is a way that Germans would say "What's up?" to each other.

Answer 3

Hallo, Wie Gehts es Ihnen although Wie Gehts is the informal form of it. It depends on how close you two are.

Answer 4

I live in Bavaria-southern Germany, and we say, and I do not know how to spell the fírst part-Gruss Gott, wie gehts? The Gruss Gott part means we are with God.

Please someone-help me out with the spelling of what I am trying to say!
