Magandang umaga, friend.
We say "zao shang hao" and we write "???".
Just practise it and you will speak it well instantly. It is easy. Thanks for sharing with us your language for “Good morning.”

Well I guess you don't pronounce it as you read it. But we say it as written 'Dobro Utro' (Bulgarian). :)
