You forgot something very essential in this sentence.
It should be... "Anata no namae wa nan desu ka?"

Good morning - Ohaiyou gozaimasu
Are you ok - daijoubu desuka?
We can just answer - hai, daijoubu desu!
but if you want to ask how are you - Ogenki desuka?
Answer - Genki desu
I'm also in the process of learning, so, forgive me if there any mistakes. Hope others can give opinion...onegai!  _________________

hahaha is ok.
You spelled the state Ohio instead, but its all goodd
When asking if someone if you're pretty close to, say like a friend if he/she is ok, i think its also fine to just say "daijyobu" according to how things are...
ex. your friend trips over something...saying "daijyobu" without the "desu ka" shouldn't be all that big a deal. _________________

so u can say this to anyone right
just asking |
If you're saying congrats to friends, you can simply say omedetou, but if you're saying it to people you really aren't close to, say omedetou gozaimasu. More polite and formal
