In Argentina, you’ll often hear “¡Hola, che!” as a friendly hello. “¿Qué hacés?” is a common way to ask “How are you?” The Italian influence is evident in greetings like “Chau” for goodbye. In formal situations, “Buen día” (Good day) is widely used, while “Buenas” works as a catch-all greeting throughout the day.
