the answers shouldnt necessarily be in different languages...what i am looking for is creative and out of the box ways to acknowledge first when the call has started and then when its about to end. u can also go for a short phrase.

I can give you some goofy ways.:
hello-
1. say "jello" instead.
2. Pick up the phone and don't say anything. When they go "HELLOOOO?" say "I waved at you. Didn't you see me?" Not for use on slow people because they won't get it. Probably a one use thing.
goodbye-
1. Like "ta ta" but add an r to each "ta": "tar tar" Said with a heavy Southern accent.

If you have caller ID:
Hi (insert name here). How are you?
And instead of just "goodbye", acknowledge when you will speak with them again, for example "see you Friday morning".

I answer my phone by saying "what can I do for you?" and I end the conversation by saying "Toodles!"
