There are different ways to say hello in Gothic. The first is to say: Fagino. This means something like: I 'm glad (to see you).
The most common way however is the adjective "hails" (which means something like be healthy). It depends on who and how many you greet in what you use. If you greet a man, you say:
hails. If you greet a woman, you say: haila.
If you greet a group of men, you say: hailai, a group of woman: hailos, or a mixed group: haila.
The last way to great someone is saying "I greet you", golja þuk for one person, golja igqis for two persons and golja izwis for more than two persons.
