A formal greeting used during the day.
문화적 배경
Greetings are mandatory. Ignoring a greeting is seen as a sign of arrogance. Hungarian speakers here use the same greetings, but often with more emphasis on 'kívánok'. Similar to Hungary, formal greetings are strictly observed in public life. The greeting is a bridge between different ethnic groups in the region.
