I've compiled everything that I've got (except the latter half of the Vya:a:h phrases that weren't as greeting-ish) and apologize *abjectly* for any typos or omissions.

[tzime bato] = "greeting [our] meeting" = hello! from the words cime "greet(ing)" and bato "meet(ing)". there are many other expressions depending on the circumstances: cime cali "good day" cime cacali "good night" cime tale "welcome" cime tebe "farewell" etc. Mathias www.geocities.com/kalatunu/index.htm
