      Off the top of my head, I could think of five.

      Hello, Ciao, Hola, Aloha, Bonjour.

      But like some other people are saying, after thinking a bit, you realize you know more than that.

      Hello
      Hola (spanish)
      Ohayou (japanese)
      Bonjour (french)
      Sapa say (creole)
      Gutentag (german)

      And I think I knew how to say it in polish at one point, but the only words I can seem to recall are "yes" and "kiss me".

      edit: Also 5-6 and 6-10 is kinda misleading...I mean, who do the people who know it in 6 languages really vote for?

      I'm including some "good mornings" in this, because there are many different ways of saying Hello, even in multiple languages. 'Que tal' (what's up??) instead of Hola, in Spanish, for instance.

      Hello (English)
      Hola (Spanish)
      Bonjour (French)
      Bongiorno (Italian)
      Ni Hao (Chinese)
      Konichiwa (Japanese)
      Aloha (Modern Hawaiian? I don't know the exact origin of this one. Just that Aloha means both 'hello' and 'goodbye' in Hawaiian)
      'Ellohay (Pig Latin)
      Hithigellithigo (Gibberish)
      Gutentag, (German)
      G'day/Good Arvo (Australian)

      Hi, hello, hey, wasup, 'sup, aight
      Hola, que paso
      Salut, bonjour, comment ca va
      Stradsvyoicha
      Gutentaag
      Salaam, As-salaam Alaikum

      Looks like six.

      ETA: d'oh! I left off aloha, shalom and konichiwa, but I already voted, and I specifically tried to think of how to say hello in Japanese and Hebrew and came up empty-handed, so I guess it's close enough. I didn't even think of Hawaiian because it's a novelty language

      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama
