Mosterforthr, don't forget that in Spanish you don't pronounce the "h" at the beginning of "hola", so if you are planning on saying it to someone, it should be pronounced like "Oh-lah", with the emphasis on the first syllable.

The textbook translation for hello in english is "hola".

Additionally, there are several other ways to greet someone, just as in English.

¿cómo te va? - how's it going?

¿que pasa? - what's up? / or very informal version of hello

¿cómo esta? - how are you?

etc...

Hi and welcome to the forum.

The English word "Hello" is "Hola" in Spanish.

Can we help you with something else?

The correct answer to your question, What is hello? Well hello is a greeting in english when you meet someone but if you want to ask the question how is it translated to spanish you would say: ¿Cómo se dice hello en español? = How do you say hello in spanish? and the answer would be: Se dice hola,= you say hola.
