Ça va ?

Things are going well?

Sa vah?

Bien, merci

All is well, thanks

Bee an marecee

Et vous?

And you?

Ay vous?

These are general greetings for every day of the week. In France, it’s quite common in rural villages to say hello to people when you pass them. In cities, this would be impractical since there may be too many people. If you are visiting a café, you always greet the waiter by saying “Hello” before you order your drink as this is polite. It’s the same on buses when you want to ask the driver something. You would open the conversation with “hello.”

Of course, you can add to the greetings a lot using modern French, although it’s good to learn the correct way to greet someone. Usually a greeting is accompanied by a handshake or if greeting people that you know well, a kiss on both cheeks.

If you are going to ask how someone is in singular form, then of course the greetings above will suffice. However, the order of the words changes when you want to ask after someone else or want to change the number of people you are inquiring about. For example:

How are the children?

Would turn into

Comment vont les enfants?

How is your mother

Comment va ta mere?
