How’s goin’? a la Shakespeare.

Hey, how’s goin’?

Hi, how are you doin’?

We ask what is happening around the person, when you we meet someone.

In Shakespeare they say;

“What news?”

In The Merchant of Venice, characters gossip and talks to each other with this phrase.

“Now what news on the Rialto?”

“How now, Shylock, what news among the merchants?”
