I have an Orthodox friend here in the office. What is the proper greeting that I can give him in parting tomorrow?

greeting = wishes
Duh. You give greeting when you first meet. In parting, I guess it wouldn't be a "greeting" eh? :-/

If you feel brave, you can try #7's greeting (Hag Sameach = Happy Holiday). The pronounciation is something like:
Chag (with the "ch" pronounced like the ch in the Scottish word "loch", NOT like "ch" in "church") SahMAYach (same "ch" as in loch pronounciation at the end of this word too).
Happy Passover!
