Notes from Volver. A character says "Qué hay" and it gets put as "What's up"? Can this be the same as Qué hubo or is it different? Gracias.

¿Qué hay?

¿Qué hubo?

¿Qué más?

¿Qué pasó?

¿Quiúbole?

¿Entonces?

¿Que's la que?

¿Cómo andas?

¿Cómo va todo?

¿Cómo te ha ido?

....

There are quite a few ways to express the basic empty greeting: "Wassup?"

Pretty much the same thing. What's up? What's happening?

Just as a trivia thing, I originally learned ¿Qué hay de nuevo? What's new? That got shortened to ¿Qué hay?

Oh yeah, good point, I know Que hay de nuevo, never thought about shortening it. - jeezzle, Jul 27, 2010

What about "Qué tal?" Is that a shortening of a full greeting as well? Great question and answers. smile
