Moin moin!

Expression USED Frequently BY East-Frisians

(Hello) • The double-Moin is an expression of greeting a group of people, mainly used by natives of East-Frisia (North-Western Germany), as well as by the tourism industry. Unlike the single Moin, it's very rarely followed by a name.

"Bernd tritt in eine Bar: «Moin moin!» Seine freunde: «Moin Bernd!»"
