'''Nanu nanu''' (pronounced NAH-noo NAH-noo), also variously spelled '''''Na-nu Na-nu''''', '''''Na-No Na-No''''', and '''''Nanoo Nanoo''''', is the typical [[Ork]]an greeting. Its usage may be similar to the Hawaiian word "aloha," which may be used as both a greeting and a farewell, since [[Mork]] also uses the phrase in his weekly mental reports to [[Orson]].

When meeting new people, the phrase is paired with a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulcan_salute Vulcan]-style handshake; when addressing another Orkan, it's combined with a twist of their interchangeable ears.

The official spelling of the phrase is "Na-No, Na-No" as it appeared in the majority of the original [[Merchandising|merchandising]], and this is also how [[Pam Dawber]] pronounced it in ''[[Mork Goes Public]]''. Veering slightly off-script, [[Robin Williams]] changed the pronunciation, which led to the variety of spellings.

==Orkan Handshake==
The proper procedure for the accompanying Orkan handshake is detailed in [[The Official Mork & Mindy Scrapbook]].

# Ensure each person has a hand to shake (preferably each hand should have five fingers).
# Extend hand. Separate fingers so that the index and middle fingers are together and the ring and little fingers are together.
# Reach hand out (as if to touch); stop when longest fingers are 1/8" apart. Flex hand muscles.
# The Female should rotate her hand counter-clockwise until her palm is parallel to the ground. With two females, the older will rotate her hand; with two males, the male with more chest hair will rotate his hand.
# Interlock fingers. Hold for at least 4 seconds and no more than 2 days.
# Relax hands, lower arms to side. Feel free to move on and na-no, na-no someone else.
