How do you say merhaba fistik in English?

"Merhaba fıstık" is a Turkish phrase that is a playful and affectionate greeting. It literally translates to "Hello, pistachio."

There is no direct equivalent in English that captures the same playful and affectionate tone. Here are a few options depending on the context:

Formal:

* Hello there.

* Greetings.

Informal:

* Hey there, peanut. (This is the closest equivalent, but it may not be as widely understood)

* Hey, sweetie.

* Hi, there.

* Hello, beautiful/handsome.

* Hey you.

You could also try using:

* Hey, my little/big one.

* Good to see you!

The best translation will depend on the situation and your relationship with the person you are speaking to.
