For that you need to use original Greek or Latin. That way it sounds cool when you tell someone "i don't like you".

You're from Kenya right?
I'm curious, why do you have "Good afternoon" in your culture? Hari za mchana

Like in my language it sounds weird first of all and nobody says it. The words exists to say it but nobody says it.

Run, curiosity is not a good thing. Habari za mchana sounds cool, maybe you guys are busy during daytime, no time to check on one another. :censored:

Hahah.
You need to visit the Mediterranean region sometimes. Everybody sleeps right after lunch hour and they wake up late in the afternoon.
There is no such thing as "busy" during daytime. :ROFL:

Ok, all kidding aside, where I come from I think "Sawadi" with either the suffix "kah," if (the speaker is) female or a "kup," if (the speaker is) male, covers all of those sayings.

I messed up on "I miss you".

It's not "Më mungon" but "Më ka marrë malli".
This is more correctly aligned with the 1611 KJV translation and it sounds more manly. :LOL:

Good morning and let's all make a Nesspreso.
I think @NightTwister had a nesspreso machine too.

Espresso is a universal word too. :D
It's funny to see the spellings in different languages like "ekspress" "espreso" but everyone knows what you're talking about.
Like you could be in China and have no idea what they're saying and then someone says what vaguely sounds as "espresso" in Chinese and then you jump right in.
"Hey i know that word. ESPRESSO. GIMMIE ONE" :ROFL:

That language is known here, like for me here if I don't like whatever my friend says in public, just one glance makes them either switch or abort the topic.

Earlier this week I made an instant coffee at home for the first time since April.

Then I did it again yesterday morning cuz I was up well before six in the morning...

Today is a day off for me and I just got up a while ago but may do it again...

Espresso is too strong for me.

:ROFL: Maybe but it's not really that, it's the culture.
During the cold war, there was a Canadian journalist who came to Albania to visit.
Albania back then was like North Korea now. Every foreigner was assigned a secret service agent which follows you.
He noticed that right after lunch all the streets were empty ... because people were sleeping. And they had no drinks either.
So he said "The best time to invade Albania would be during lunch hour because you guys are all sleeping". :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:

Now I know. But I guess it can still apply in dream tones.

People in the US do say good afternoon. I've heard it countless times in my life. Though admittedly it is mostly used in business settings towards customers, or medical, but I've heard personl use as well.
