To say "hello" in Chinese, you can use:

In Mandarin Chinese:

  • 你好 (nǐ hǎo) — This is the most common and standard way to say "hello."

Pronunciation:

  • sounds like "nee"
  • hǎo sounds like "how" but with a falling-rising tone

Additional greetings:

  • 您好 (nín hǎo) — A more polite or formal way to say hello, often used to show respect.
  • 大家好 (dà jiā hǎo) — Means "hello everyone."

If you want, I can also provide greetings in other Chinese dialects!
