What is how are you in Chinese?

"How are you?" in Chinese can be expressed in a few different ways, depending on the context and formality:

Formal:

* 您好吗?(Nín hǎo ma?) - This is the most formal and polite way to ask. It literally means "Are you well?"

* 您最近怎么样?(Nín zuìjìn zěnmeyàng?) - This is also formal and means "How are you doing these days?"

Informal:

* 你好吗?(Nǐ hǎo ma?) - This is a more casual way to ask, similar to "How are you?" in English.

* 最近怎么样?(Zuìjìn zěnmeyàng?) - This is informal and means "How are you doing lately?"

* 怎么样?(Zěnmeyàng?) - This is very casual and can be used with friends or family. It literally means "How?"

Other options:

* 身体还好吗?(Shēntǐ hái hǎo ma?) - This means "Are you feeling well?"

* 最近过得怎么样?(Zuìjìn guò de zěnmeyàng?) - This means "How have you been lately?"

The best way to choose which phrase to use depends on who you are speaking to and the situation.
