I've heard that in Hamburg, people often greet each other with 'moin' instead of the usual 'hello' or 'good morning'. I'm curious about the reason behind this unique greeting. Why is it specifically 'moin' that they use in Hamburg?

The word "Moin" has an interesting origin. It is derived from the German word "Morgen," which means morning.

Historically, "Moin" was originally used as a fishermen's welcome. This tradition has been preserved and continues to be used by Germans in the northern part of the country.
