Thanks for your replies which add another two
to the list of maybe-translations:

.oi nai ro'a
.ui coi

Are you sure that this list doesn't miss
out THE most frequent translation?

Now, what I really would like to know:

Which is THE MOST COMMON way of
saying "nice to meet you"? And hence: which
word/phrase should a beginner learn?

(Learning all six is NOT an option for a
beginner, I think.)
