Wa’na’shau is a verb (na’shau) with an adverbial enclitic prefix that emphasizes the greeting (wa’), na’shaya is the noun form of that verb. You could use either. I prefer na’shau or wa’na’shau if the greeting is especially sincere (from a Vulcan) or "warm" (from a non-Vulcan).

Poetry requires A LOT of adjectives or synonisms…but we must use at less two or more words for only one idea? Uhmmm… Language is so formal and full of feeling, in the same way. I luv it!!!!! -how Terran of me…-

Even with all 12,000+ words, “agreeable” per se is not in there. How about °Sanokik ta snagel-tor n’odu° ? (Lit.: Pleasant to encounter you). I’ll have to add it. Wa’itaren na’glantaya t’du.. Thanks so much for the observation!

What? No “it is agreeable to see you”? 😉
