another way to say hola

So, i was just wondering if there was another way to say hola besides hola because it gets very repetative... I think I have heard that Buenos is used in some countries, anyone no anything else?? Basically, I am looking for and equivalent of hey, or hi in english...

Quiero saber si hay otra manera para decir hola porque es muy repetativo. Pienso que he escuchado a paises donde "buenos" es popular, pero, saben de algo diferente?? Quiero una(s) palabras igual a "hey" o "hi" en ingles.

Gracias!! Thanks!

Some phone conversations can be started by like you said Bueno...

Si.... Diga.... Hable...

o simplemente Ya...

it can say also (when speaking to friends) something like: "¡maja!" or "guapa" (well, I am thinking in how I might greet a female friend...), but these don't actually mean the same as "hola". They are just different ways to greet a friend.

I have heard people say "días" or "tardes" as short for "buenos días" or "buenas tardes".

I've heard some people say "buenas"

I wonder if you can say it at any time of day?????

no, I would say only "hola"... but it is more and more popular also to use english words like "hi"... but hola is the best...
