The word Ya’ahowu is the common greeting among the people of Nias. Wherever you travel on the island you will certainly be greeted with the word: Ya’ahowu, a typical greeting that is given in the morning, noon or evening or indeed, on any occasion.

The person so greeted replies with the same word “Ya’ahowu”. This is said at chance meetings, or also at the opening or closing of the mass or church services, where most people in Nias are now Christians.
