Is the greeting "Dav" used very often?

In what kind of context is this an appropriate greeting?

Is it used more commonly in rural areas?

Tak!

It sounds like the usage of "Dav" in Danmark might be similar to the usage of "Howdy" here in the USA.

Yea that seems an apt comparison, though howdy makes me think of cowboys :P

Yeah, I can see that since it’s illegal to say “Howdy” anywhere east of the Mississippi River or in a non-rural area. 😉
