でしょ - Like です but less certain (I think, might be, etc.)
きょは三どでしょ - I think it is 3 degrees.
なんて___ - How something! (As in, "wow, that's cold!")

げんき - Well
おげんきですか？ - Very formal and polite way of asking "how are you?"
げんきですか？ - Less polite, but still enough for most situations.

ぜっこちょ - Amazing
げんきいっぱい - So great.
すごくげんき - Extremely well.

To change the polite negative to the informal negative, the "ありません" can just be replaced with "ない"
げんきではありません ---> げんきではない
Add です to this informal version and you will have the polite form again.
