Local Greetings in Peruvian Spanish

Peruvian greetings vary by region. “¿Qué tal?” is universally used. In Lima, “¿Cómo estás, pe?” adds the distinctly Peruvian “pe” to the standard greeting. “¿Qué cuentas?” (What do you count?) is another way to ask what’s new. When saying goodbye, “Chau” or “Nos vemos” are common.
