HAU/HAN

We do not have a Lakota word for “Hello” or even “Good Morning”  these greetings do not exist in Lakota. 
A simple “Hau” for males is sufficient 
“Han” followed by a relative term is sufficient for females.

relatives,

male (directional sole) and female (omnidirectional soul) are two sides of the same coin, yet operate differently.

male: hau is pronounced how (au dipthong) and your mouth creates a circle (puckered a bit). (the center of the world is indwelling, we are greeted).

female: han is just as it looks it sounds, han. however the final sound (n) the mouth sounds a bit like like nyah and almost falls silent. (sparks of star light illuminate, similar to the shooting star)

relationship is essential to Lakota language and clan. greetings include family ties or bonds like aunt or uncle distinguishing _on my fathers side or _ on my mothers side. this helps to show respect and acknowledges relationship and family member.

what does the word 'hau' actually mean?

Hau is thought to be a borrowing from an Algonquin tribe, as the AU of Hau is the only dipthong of that type in the Lakota language.
Hau translates as: Hello, Yes, Ok, and Amen.

Antalya tummy tuck surgery, medically called "Abdominoplasty", is a major surgery involving the removal of excess skin and adipose tissue in the middle and lower abdomen and restoring the tension of the abdominal wall muscles. With this procedure, the appearance of sagging abdomen is dramatically corrected.

But do not forget that there will be a permanent scar of varying length depending on the degree of the problem and the size of the surgery to be performed on it.
