It depends on who you're talking to. If you are talking to someone who you would speak properly with (or with more than one person), you say Ո՞նց եք (Vonts ek?). If you are speaking with one person, and they are familiar, you say Ո՞նց ես (Vonts es?). Hope this helps...I'm not Armenian but I lived there for two years and have been speaking for over three...

The aforementioned is correct! Although another way of saying "how are you" in Armenian is: 1. "Inchpes ek" used in a formal and/or plural context. 2. "Inchpes es" used in an informal and/or singular context.

Armenian (Armenia, Russia, Middle East) [rarely used, most formal] --- Voghjuyn* (Ողջույն)

I am Armenian.
*Remember 'gh' is pronounced like a French 'r' (from back of throat). The 'j' is pronounced like the 'ch' in "chew". The 'u' is pronounced like the 'oo' in "goo".
In Eastern Armenian, you can either say xntrem or charjhe. Charjhe is more common.
Խնդրեմ (xndrem), or չարժե (charje) both work....however xndrem is more proper, meaning (you're welcome) and charje means basically (free of charge)... (the 'x' sound in xndrem is pronounced like hucking a loogie, and the 'j' sound is pronounced like the "ge" in charge). Hope this helps!
