How to ask "How are you?" in Japanese.

Ogenki desuka?

Ogenki desuka?

"Ogenki" really means "well," so you're technically asking "Are you well?"

Let's try it.

Ogenki desuka?.

One more time.

Ogenki desuka?

In a casual setting, you can just say, "Genki?," or "Are you well?" But it's condensed.

Let's try it.

Genki.

There you go.

And that's how you ask "How are you?" in Japanese.
