How do you say hello ladies in Greek?

There isn't a single perfect translation for "Hello ladies" in Greek that captures the informal, friendly tone of the English phrase. The best option depends on the context and your relationship with the women you're addressing. Here are a few possibilities:

* Γεια σας κυρίες (Gia sas kyries): This is the most formal and polite option. "Γεια σας" (Gia sas) is a formal hello, and "κυρίες" (kyries) means "ladies." This is appropriate for a more formal setting or if you don't know the women well.

* Χαίρετε κυρίες (Chairete kyries): Similar to the above, but slightly less formal. "Χαίρετε" (Chairete) is a more literary and slightly less common greeting than "Γεια σας."

* Γεια σας κορίτσια (Gia sas koritsia): This is more informal and suitable for younger women or if you're on friendly terms with them. "Κορίτσια" (koritsia) means "girls." Using this with older women might be considered slightly disrespectful.

* Καλημέρα κυρίες (Kalimera kyries): "Good morning ladies." Use this in the morning.

* Καλησπέρα κυρίες (Kalispera kyries): "Good evening/afternoon ladies." Use this in the afternoon or evening.

Therefore, Γεια σας κυρίες (Gia sas kyries) is a safe and polite choice for most situations. If you're unsure, err on the side of formality.
