¿cómo estás? in spanish
come stai? in italian
i have found this website where you will find a huge list of languages and how you say how are you in each of them...you will also find how to answer (like "fine thanks and you?"), it tells you the difference between formal and informal greetings as well as differences if you are addressing a man or a woman and also some of them have a sound file that will allow you to hear the pronunciation in your speakers...there is also a link for many other basic phrases...hope it helps!!
