Chileans are known for their unique expressions. “¿Cómo estái?” is a common informal greeting, using the distinctively Chilean “voseo” form. “¿Cachai?” (Do you get it?) is often used in conversation. “Hola, po” combines the standard “hola” with the ubiquitous Chilean filler word “po”. For goodbye, you’ll often hear “Chao” or “Nos vemos”.
