Local Greetings in Mexican Spanish

Mexican greetings are diverse and colorful. “¿Qué onda, güey?” is a very informal way to say “What’s up, dude?”. “¿Cómo estás?” is universally used. “¿Qué hubo?” (What happened?) is another common greeting. When saying goodbye, you might hear “Adiós” or the more colloquial “Nos vemos al rato” (See you in a bit).
