Significado
Very short, informal greeting among friends.
Contexto cultural
In the capital, 'Mizu' is often said with a very specific, slightly bored intonation. It's part of the 'cool' urban identity. You cannot talk about 'Mizu' without mentioning Fluor Tomi. His 2011 song is a cultural touchstone that everyone in Hungary knows, for better or worse. In Hungarian texting, 'Mizu' is often the very first word of a chat. It's considered polite to 'ping' someone with a 'Mizu' before asking for a favor. Older Hungarians might prefer 'Mi újság?' and view 'Mizu' as a sign of a declining vocabulary among the youth.
The Double Mizu
Saying 'Mizu, mizu?' (twice) makes you sound more enthusiastic and friendly.
The Age Limit
If the person is over 60, stick to 'Mi újság?'. 'Mizu' might sound like you're talking down to them.
