Informal greetings are greetings that are commonly used when interacting with someone
who has a closer relationship or has known for a long time, for example with the family of
the same age, close friends, partners, and so on. Same as in Indonesian. Informal greetings
are also greetings that can be used when we are in a more relaxed situation such as for
example meeting while on vacation, birthday parties, and so on.
