Question

WHY WE SAY HELLO FIRST CALL IN TALK SOMEONE....???​

Answer 1

Answer:

The dictionary says it was Thomas Edison who put hello into common usage. He urged the people who used his phone to say "hello" when answering. His rival, Alexander Graham Bell, thought the better word was "ahoy."

Answer 2

The choice is largely arbitrary and was much discussed when the telephone was invented. Alexander Graham Bell, considered inventor of the telephone in the USA, proposed "Ahoy" while Thomas Edison is said to have coined "hello". Other candidates included Bell Labs "What is Wanted?", "Are you there" and "Are you ready to talk".

Not surprisingly "hello" is the one that caught on and all the others disappeared, in English-speaking countries at least. The same process occurred in other countries with differing results. In Italian, for example, they say "pronto", meaning "ready".
