"Hello" "How are you?" "How's it going?" "Goodbye" "So long"
Wicca isn't a language. It's a religion, created by a man who spoke English none the less.

Merry Meet implies membership in a ritual group. The coming together, separating and the coming together again.
Merry meet is like hello and merry part is like a goodbye.
Don't throw them around as mere greetings or use them in mixed company. And certainly not as online greetings. Which is annoying.

Dragoness Arleeana "Hello" "How are you?" "How's it going?" "Goodbye" "So long" Wicca isn't a language. It's a religion, created by a man who spoke English none the less. But there is "ritual language".

^ This.
Casual salutations for WIccans are the same as the normal salutations for whatever language the initiate speaks. "Hello", "hola", "bonjour", etc.
Things like "merry meet" and "merry part", etc. are not casual salutations and should not be used as such. They have specific meanings within rituals and ceremonies and are not meant to be thrown around in everyday life. (Also, why would you want to? neutral All it would gain you are strange looks and feelings of unease in the people around you.)

You weren't clear with your question, that is no fault of mine and I don't appreciate the attitude when I was merely answering your question as it was posed.
