yo is like a slang (or maybe a regional informal greeting) for 'hey'or 'hi' - CubaLibre68, Feb 23, 2010

Answer 4

From Mexican adults I've heard: What's up? ¿Qué onda? (usually) ¿Quiúbole? (sometimes)

Whatever lo que sea

Cool chido or the still slangy but a little more preppy padre or in some other countries (I don't remember where, but not MX) chévere

Chill out cálmate or apacíguate

It is what it is así es

Thanks these are interesting and nice to know. I personally love using cálmate, tranquilízate, and relájate (I'm Cuban, btw) - CubaLibre68, Feb 23, 2010
