Alright

A term used by English folk who surround themselves in football culture. "Alright" shortened from "all right" is a term that can be used in many different contexts and as an alternative word to "hello".

The term is often used by those with low cognitive IQ scores and lower level of intelligence. Legend says "Alright" was the first English word spoken just years prior of the stone age.
Friend - "how are you doing today Ollie?"
Ollie - "Alright"

Friend - "how was work Ollie?"
Ollie - "Alright"

Ollie - "Alright?" *Greeting*
Friend - "Hi mate how are you?"
Ollie - "Alright"

"Alright"

"Yeah, it was amazing. My team scored THREE goals, they really beat the other team up!"

"Aaallllright"

"Yeah, I loved it. Definitely going to another one soon."

You Alright?

1) A common UK greeting synonymous with hello or yo. Similar to how's it goin? or what's up? Though often inflected with an upspeak, suggesting a response is required. It isn't necessarily, and if the person then wants to talk about what so-and-so said to so-and-so near the printer today. It can be downright unwanted!

2) A genuine concern for a persons well-being where a response is required. The person could be recently bereaved or long since last seen.

Context is important. If the person was seen half an hour ago and there's no reason to think they're in any distress, it's a greeting. When confronting an injured person, it requires a response.
You alright?
