Wizard’s Wisdom: Formally Informal

In Afrikaans, it is common to use the formal greetings ‘Goeie dag’ (Good day) and ‘Goeie more’ (Good morning) in professional or respectful settings. However, in informal situations, it is perfectly acceptable to use the more casual ‘Hallo’ (Hello) or ‘Hi’ to greet someone.
