How do you say 'Hello' in your native language?
Hi,
I am working on an infographic for a client which is based on how to say 'Hello' in every European country.
I have searched Google for the answers, but some languages such as Belarusian, Greek and Ukrainian had a few different versions thrown up at me. I'd like to know if I have the correct translations.
10 seconds of your time to let me know if I am correct or to correct me would be much appreciated, thank you :)

Re: How do you say 'Hello' in your native language?
Hi Barry,
you’ve omitted Kazakhstan, Ireland, and the UK from your list of European countries. (Like Turkey, a small portion of Kazakhstan is in Europe.) By omitting Ireland, you’ve omitted Irish, which is one of Ireland’s official languages.
Your list also omits recognized regional and minority languages in these countries, such as Welsh in the UK, Breton in France, Catalan in Spain, Frisian in the Netherlands, Faroese in the Faroe Islands of Denmark, Tatar in Russia, etc.
