Nǐ hǎo is how you say "Hello" in Chinese. Nǐ hǎo literally translates to "you good" in English, where nǐ means "you" and hǎo means "good", and it is used as a standard way of saying hello to an individual or a group of people in China.
The correct pronunciation of nǐ hǎo in Chinese can be phonetically transcribed as knee haow. When pronouncing it, the -ao in -haow must be sufficiently rounded and emphasized.
