In the capital, 'Szia' is used everywhere among peers, including in hipster cafes and tech offices. In smaller villages, people might use more traditional greetings, but 'Szia' is still understood and used by the youth. Hungarians living abroad often use 'Szia' as a way to identify other Hungarians in public spaces. Even in modern offices, the transition to 'Szia' is a milestone that marks the end of the 'probationary' social phase.
