Goodmorning: ibolachi
Goodnight: Kachifo
Thank you: Dalu
How are you : kedu ki ime
Welcome: Nno
How is your family : kedu maka ndi begi
How are your children: Kedu maka umugi
Welldone: jisi ike
How is your body : kedu maka Arugi
You will notice i didn’t indicate any greeting for afternoon, this is because to the best of my knowledge there is no afternoon greeting in igbo language. In the afternoon they can greet each other using a general term ‘Ndewo’ which means welldone.
Is there any greeting i missed out? Let me know in the comment section.

Good morning in my own dialect is ututu oma, that dosent mean yours is wrong. Just trying to say that different igbo dialects might say some of the greetings differently according to their dialect. Though i like the way yours is, its very simple and easy to understand.
