Namaskar/Suprabhat
The word 'suprabhat' is not usually used in Hindi as a substitute for Good Morning. In fact, the English Good Morning does not have any proper usable cultural substitute in Hindi. The only way to say the same greeting in Hindi would be to use 'Namaskar' or a variant 'Namaste'.

Thanks:) Anil. I never did disagree. I just wanted to show the difference between a purist approach to language and a conversational one. Thanks again. :)
