This is a Mandarin Chinese phrase typically used in greeting. The term literally means "you good" ('ni' means 'you' and hao' means 'good'), but is used as a "hello" or "hi". If a 'ma' is added to the end of the phrase, its meaning is changed to something like "Are you well?" This is also a phrase used in greeting others, as it's polite.
