[edit] Ciao in Spanish
Why no mention of the common use of 'ciao' in Spanish?
i di nont ageer
Actually ciao is italian. In spanish, it is spelled chao and is only used in South America and some parts of central america
Hello! I must disagree. In fact, I'm Spaniard and I say chao usually with my compatriots.
[edit] List of greetings
What's the point of the list of greetings? Shouldn't there rather be a greetings category?
- Indeed the list is out of place here. It may belong to an article on greeting phrase or somehing like that. Here one should keep only a list of cognates of the word "ciao", in those languages that have them. (In Brazil, for instance, it should be Tchau! and not Oi!".)

[edit] Vietnamese
The Vietnamese word for "hello" and "goodbye" is "chào". While it sounds like Italian, it is not derived from Italian but is a native word. DHN 22:41, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Greeting that means hello and goodbye
Is there a word for the type of greeting that means both hello and goodbye (such as Ciao or Aloha)?
