Brits ofen say "You alright?" As a substitute for "Hi."
Pretty jarring when you're not used to it. Id think "God, I must look like shit if they're genuinely checking on my welfare!"
When I moved to London, I remember the old lady at the laundromat addressing me as "love"
I was like: "Damn, over here my charm even works with old ladies"
As it turns out, calling somebody "love" it's just a way of addressing people in some English regions.
