意味
Polite way to ask how someone is
文化的背景
Greetings are often accompanied by a 'Sat Sri Akal' and sometimes a touch of the feet (Pairi Pauna) for very close elders. The response 'Chardi Kala' is a unique Sikh cultural marker meaning 'Eternal Optimism'. In villages, asking about one's health is often followed by asking about the crops or the livestock. In Canada or the UK, 'Tusi kive ho?' is a way for the younger generation to show they still respect traditional values.
The 'Ji' Factor
Add 'Ji' after names or titles before asking this to sound even more polite. E.g., 'Papa ji, ਤੁਸੀਂ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਹੋ?'
Avoid 'Tu'
As a beginner, never use 'Tu kive hai?' with anyone older than you. It can be seen as a sign of disrespect.

The Response
When someone asks you this, always say 'Main theek han' (I am fine) before asking them back.
Nasalization
Pay attention to the dot (Bindi) over 'Tusi' and 'Kive'. It means the sound goes through your nose.
