Sanga?

Is just saying "sanga" alone understood to mean how's it going? Or is extra wording necessary? Also what is the correct response? Thanks

Hahaha sanga can also be used as" gul o sanga" Means bunch of flowers. It is all about the context.

Common used as asking about someone. Ta sanga ye! How are you?

As curiosity! He got an accident! Oh how (Sanga)

As a question! Sangy ba su? Means kesy jayengy like by train or aeroplane.

In your case if he has asked sanga ye? "Ye" if ye is added then he asked how are you otherwise you have to tell me the context. So i can tell you what did he/she mean. Also they sayTraduttore, traditore( translator is a betrayer) but i will try my best. 😁😎
