How about there past forms or are they the same everyway?

[JPablo]

What was going on?
¿Qué pasó? [what happened?] (Although some people may use this as "What's up?")
¿Qué estaba pasando? [what was happening?]
¿Qué te traías? [what were you up to?]
¿Qué onda? [what's up?] (I think you only use this in present tense... there is not even a verb in Spanish here)

Hope that gives you an idea. (Not very common to use these past forms, although you could heard them.)

o yes. That makes the work easier for me. I would try to memorise them ( both the present and past forms) tonight and tomorrow, someday, I know would speak fine!

Muy bien, Naija.
Memorizar está bien, y practicar también.

You couldn't translate that literally word-for-word, because Spanish sentences can't end in a preposition. I would use "¿Qué pasa?", though there are quite a lot of variations of the expression.

[CrOtALiTo]

Yes I'm agree with you Gina.

What's going on?

Can you spell word by word.

[Equis]

que tal, que pasa, que onda

[JPablo]

Hey, and if you want to be "challenging" you could also say,
¿Qué demonios está pasando? (As in "what the hell is going on?") (Literally, "What the demons is happening?")

Pablo

What's going on there?
May you explain me more about your commentary.

Pablo.
Don't upset with me.

Just now I'm practice myself.

Hello Miguel.

What hell going on?

I don't know Miguel, I suppose a homicide in the apartment.
What.
How do you know that?

Well the police told me that a man got out of the Alice's apartment three hours ago with a weapon over his hands.

Oh my god.

I can't believe it.

Yes at least that was the information the cap gave me two minutes ago.

And.
Where's Alice?

Die.

What? Die.

Are you sure?

Yes.

What going on?

I can't believe that, because in the very early I saw to Alice getting out of her house and her side with the dog, and well I didn't see nothing suspicious with her.

Yes I saw her early too.
And I didn't see anything strong with her, but well now she is die for a man who entered to her house and shot against her.

Definitely this city isn't secure today.

Yes I think the same.

The end.

I hope you can correct me.

I will appreciate your correction.

Oh, my God!

She died. [She's dead.]

What? Dead?

Are you sure?

Yes.

I can't believe that, because in the very early I saw to Alice getting out of her house and her side with the dog at her side, and well, I didn't see anythingnothing suspicious with her.

Yes, I saw her early too.
And I didn't see anything wrong with her, but well, now she is dead [killed] by a man who entered to her house and shot against her.

Definitely, this city isn't secure today.

Yes, I think the same.

Well, maybe Gina can check my corrections, given that this was all English... but I tried my best... The moral of the story, is that you better train your dog to defend you, or you are dead meat... right?
