When your villagers ask for a new greeting, or the thing they say at the end of sentences. What do you usually pick?
Lately, for greetings, I've been having them say Rally Ho. Its how they say hello in Conde Petie from Final Fantasy 9.

For theyre saying I usually pick attack names from One Piece like delphinium or mutton shot. Whatever I can fit inside the spaces available.
 
all of my villager's greeting is "Hi there friendo" and their catchphrase is "kid"
 
I make them say a bunch of onomatopoeia words, silly words like 'dump head' or 'poopy' or go according to their personality type. It's pretty random, sometimes people who visit are like 'what the actual ___' xD
 
I like to make my villagers say words that reflect on my town. My town name is Jungle so say will say things like "leaf" "forest" or "vine" etc.
 
i make my villagers say stuff that fit their personality, like for octavian i made his greeting "Gahaha!" and his catchphrase "Kalamari!" because of his species and i made tangy's greeting "Juicy-Nyah!" because of her design, and her catchphrase "Nyah!" because of her being a cat and tucker's catprase being "Icy Baby!" because of him looking like a mammoth! basically its because of their design and personality!
 
I always give at least one villager "Bazinga" as a catchphrase, then watch to see how it spreads. xD
 
Either something that fits their species i.e. quack for a duck villager etc, or something that just 'goes' with them. For example, this may be just me, but the other day Midge asked for a catchphrase and I thought, 'Hmm, she reminds me of a kinder egg' so she now says kinder egg which I'm finding too adorable. I guess it's the swirls on her cheeks that remind me of them, and she's cute enough to eat. XD

Kitt is also now saying hoppity which is cute too. I hate her initial 'child' phrase. Reminds me of a stern mom lol.

One time I taught Clyde to say Bodacious and it started spreading among my villagers.

Then I had Soliel say Metallica.

I also like to make up words for them to say. I had Rosie saying Quoomty and Soliel saysing Zazutsi.
 
My friend makes his villagers all say "pooty-poo" as their catchphrase... comes from the TV show "Call of the Wildman" (Turtleman). I'm secretly jealous that he thought of that.
 
Depends on the villager. Cranky ones say stuff like "Shut up, you!" or "Shut your face!" while snooties will be "What else?" or "Hurry up!", while the normals say stuff like "I like talking" or "Let's talk!" or "I love you!". Peppies say stuff like "I'm up to chat!" the smug will say "Salutations!", the lazy I've had say "I'm hungry!" or "Zzzzz..." while the jocks I say "I'm a beefcake", the ideas are limitless!
 
For greetings I usually use "Toasty Toast" or "hello" in a language other than English. For signatures I usually either leave theirs or give them a food.
 
I try to make it something befitting the villager. I have Muffy saying "ramekins" because she's a sheep (and because I work in a restaurant and recently found out that is what the little sauce bowls are called). I have a smug who calls people "dear" and a jock who says things like "waz gucci," "yo," & etc.

Oh, and a duck who I don't find very cute saying, "swan."
 
Sometimes I never know what to make them say and usually just make them say hello there! for some of their greetings. I try not to make their catchphrases rude or anything because that's just not how I play the game, I take their catchphrases very seriously LOL, and will probably regret it if I made it something silly or rude. But I do remember making Olivia say "onee-kitty" at one point, it was quite cute. I also remember making Pekoe say "Mars make up!" and Ruby say "Moon prism power!" in reference to sailor moon. It was adorable I must admit. I also made Joey say quackulous in my ACWW town.

I have an eagle who says, "Bird is the word."
I have a dog who says, "Hot dog!"
I have a pig who says, "Mmm, bacon!"

I'm such a dork. LOL
 
I just make them say hello with something related to their own species. For instance, Freya says "woofhello" and Sly says "crocohello". I know, it's stupid but I kind of run out of things to make them say, lol.
 
I used to make them say rude words a few years ago because I could never think of anything. But now I like my animals to be a little more politically and socially intelligent, so I've had phrases like "Dump Trump!" and "Gender is false!". I also sometimes include pick up lines; for example, Tangy has "Orange you cute?" as a greeting!
 
I usually just make my villagers' catchphrases reflect on their appearance. Before Peanut moved away, I had her say "sugaryness" and then that spread like wildfire. Almost everyone in town said it, even the crankies lol.
For greetings, I like to use things that would suit their personalities, like for smugs, I use foreign greetings like "Bonjour" and "Ciao". Although... for some reason, when Greta used to be in my town her greeting was "SQUEEEEEAAAAK". I guess I gave it to her from when she and I were still in my brother's town. xD
 
For me, it depends on what I think of at the moment xD Although I'm not good at thinking up creative greetings all that well... I did make Baabara, my Sheep's greeting to be "I'm so fluffy" because that's what I thought of at that exact time, she's so fluffyyy! <3 I suppose I take in account of their personality, animal type, and gender as well! Or I just randomly give them something fun/funny to say! :o
 
Most of my villagers use their stock phrases but I make Marshal say "...in bed" because it hilariously fits the fabulously flamboyant personality of smug villagers. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

I'm very bad at picking new greetings - normally I just get them to say hello/hiya.
For catchphrases, I tend to use flowers/food (i.e. - sugarplum, toffee, cupcake, muffin, honeycomb, shortcake, shortbread, macaroon, blueberry, sunflower, bluebell etc).

I know I should pitch it to their personality but they end up stealing one another's catch phrase anyway!
