How do the mayans say hello?

There's no single word for "hello" in Mayan languages like Yucatec Maya. Greetings varied depending on the time of day, social context, and the specific Mayan language.

Here are some common ways to greet someone in Yucatec Maya:

* "K'iin k'aan" (Good day): A general greeting used during the day.

* "Ma'alob" (Good): A more general greeting, similar to "hello" or "good morning/afternoon."

* "In k'aaba" (Your name): A more formal greeting, similar to "Hello, how are you?". This is often followed by a question about the person's well-being.

* "Bix u beetik" (How are you?): Used to inquire about someone's well-being.

It's important to remember that there are over 30 Mayan languages, and greetings may differ slightly from one language to another.
