Greeting is an important part of Tanzanian culture. This is apparent in the dozens of phrases that exist for saying "hello" and "how are you?" One of the more popular informal greetings used between young people is "mambo" or "mambo vipi," meaning "how are things?" In response, you say "poa" which translates to "cool" in English.
