Exclamation type

Hi,

In this conversation:


-Did he leave you a voice mail?

-Yes, he did.

-What was he saying?

-'General hello type stuff'

what does 'general hello type stuff mean?'


does it mean 'hi, how are you,etc' or that he was just saying 'hello'


Thanks

Hello Elle91

Yes, that's it: "phrases of the 'hello, how are you' kind".
