Language / Czesc/pa vs. no czesc/no pa [18]

And sometimes it is used to confirm something (instead of saying "yes").

haha yeah, that took a while for me to re-hear 'no' as a confirmation/ok/yes when speaking Polish :)

I hear this all the time, placing 'no' in front of greetings/farewells (as in 'No Cześć' or 'No pa pa'). The person I ask doesn't know what it means or why they say it instead of just czesc or pa.

I'm guessing it's a filler as in the 'like' 'um' & 'uh' of English. Does anyone know?
