I think that "hao" may be the second half of "ni-hao", which I think is Mandarin Chinese, but you should check that.
vaanga seems to be Tamil.... http://www.phrasebase.com/archive2/tamil/some-basic-tamil-words.html

Hello,
I �ve done some researches about your words "Vaanga" and " Hao". "HAO" means actually "good", is a chinese word, for example: "hen hao" is used when people compliments others if they did something nice, good.
means "come let �s cook" and is a punjabi word....
