It just depends on the time of day.
ohayogozaimasu - (oh-HA-yoooo go-zah-ee-mah-ss) good morning konnichiwa - (kon-NEE-chi-wah) good day konbanwa - (kon-BAHN-wah) good evening oyasuminasai - (oh-YAH-sue-me-nah-sigh) good night you could also add sayonara - (sah-YOOOO-nah-rah) good bye roll your "r" slightly for the proper l-r blend I would go with konnichiwa during the day. |

Pictures in each country
We love your idea of saying hello. We tried pictures in each country holding up native items like maracas and pinatas in Mexico. Cheap and cute in pictures.

saying hello
My daughter will love this. They are doing "Around the World" for their theme for the year at school, so this ties into lots of parts of her world right now.
Thanks!

A song to teach the languages of Epcot
I have learned so much reading these boards and allearsnet so here is my (hopefully useful) contribution. I wanted to teach my 4 year old grandson how to say hello, how are you, I am fine, thank you and goodbye in all the languages of Epcot. Quite a challenge. (Note that I omitted arabic because that looked a little too hard.) He is really good at remembering song lyrics, as most children are, so I wrote a song. The melody is basically the bones song, as in, "the finger bones connected to the hand bone". Words in parentheses are pronunciation clues- not part of the song lyrics.
Here it is: FRENCH Hello in French is Bonjour Goodbye in French is Au revoir How are you is Como allez vous Singing in French how smart are you? Thank you in French is Merci Can you sing this song for me? I am fine is Tre Bien Now let’s sing this song again! GERMAN Guten Tag means hello You speak German know you know How are you is vee gates Speak some more now I can’t wait Say I am fine Mir geht (gate) es gut Speak some more now if you would Say thank you as danke shane Then you say Aufwiedersehen (aw feet er sayn) SPANISH Hello in Spanish is Hola How are you is como esta I am fine is estoy bien You can say that to a friend Gracias is thank you What more than that can you do? Adios is goodbye Let’s give it just one more try JAPANESE Konnichiwa is how you say Hello in Japanese today Sayoonara means goodbye Why don’t you give it a try? How are you sing tra la la And say O genki desu ka Genki desu is I am fine And domo is thank you one more time CHINESE Hello in Chinese is Nee HA-oh You can say that now you know How are you is nin hao So I guess you know that now I am fine is xie xie nin (she she nin) You can say that once again Thank you is said xie xie (she she) That is what to say to me Say goodbye then zei jian There you go then now you’re done ITALIAN Hey hey hey now did you know Hello in Italian is Buon pomeriggio Goodbye in Italian is Addio What else in Italian do we know? Thank you in Italian is Grazie. Please keep singing just for me How are you is como sta? One more line then ta da I am fine is Sto bene Thanks for singing just for me NORWEGIAN Hi in Norwegian is Hei That is too easy to try Hvordan står det til? (voor-dahn stor de’ teel) Really means how do you feel! Ha det bra (haa de’ braa) means goodbye And Takk means thank you – no lie Jeg har det bra means I am fine Sing this song just one more time |
