Usage notes
This phrase is not used in the same situations that we use it in English. In Navajo, it is not used as a mere pleasantry or greeting, but it is an earnest inquiry into one’s health or welfare, and it may seem intrusive and pushy if you do not have a sufficiently close relationship to be asking such a question. For the equivalent of the English pleasantry, see ąąʼ.
