You may have already come across the transliteration \u2018bye bye\u2019 that is used frequently in China. However, there are many other useful ways to say goodbye that you can learn too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have often found that when spending time with Chinese friends, that leaving a restaurant or going home happens very quickly and there is very little hanging around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, with this in mind, learning some of these different ways to say goodbye in Chinese will help you avoid any awkward farewells!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10 Ways to Say Goodbye in Chinese<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/baibai\/14986\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u62dc\u62dc<\/a>&nbsp;(b\u00e0i&nbsp;b\u00e0i) Bye bye<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common parting phrase you\u2019ll come across is the transliteration of \u2018bye\u2019, <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/baibai\/14986\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u62dc\u62dc<\/a>&nbsp;(b\u00e0i b\u00e0i). It is an extremely casual phrase, but can be used amongst friends, colleagues and even shop assistants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may know that there are lots of homophones within the Chinese language, and \u62dc\u62dc (b\u00e0i b\u00e0i) can be written as \u201888\u2019 because in Chinese the number 8 is pronounced b\u0101 (sounds a bit like bye ?). Another reason is that 88 also look like <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/baibai\/3511\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u767d\u767d<\/a>, which are pronounced b\u00e1i b\u00e1i.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"399\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/c8a0edec-14e2-47a5-a654-167fdeb1746f_Goodbye20homophone-e1461923351306.png?resize=399%2C399&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Goodbye Homophones\" class=\"wp-image-5352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/c8a0edec-14e2-47a5-a654-167fdeb1746f_Goodbye20homophone-e1461923351306.png?w=399&amp;ssl=1 399w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/c8a0edec-14e2-47a5-a654-167fdeb1746f_Goodbye20homophone-e1461923351306.png?resize=235%2C235&amp;ssl=1 235w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/c8a0edec-14e2-47a5-a654-167fdeb1746f_Goodbye20homophone-e1461923351306.png?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You can learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.writtenchinese.com\/fun-chinese-homophones-you-can-use-online\/\">Chinese homophones in this article<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In many of the following farewell words and phrases, you will see a character repeated frequently. The character <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/zai\/2150\/1\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u518d<\/a>&nbsp;(z\u00e0i) means \u2018again\u2019. Originally, the \u518d (z\u00e0i) character represented the wheel that was turning \u2018again and again\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/zaijian\/3343\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u518d\u89c1<\/a>&nbsp;(z\u00e0i&nbsp;ji\u00e0n)&nbsp;Goodbye<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/zaijian\/3343\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u518d\u89c1<\/a>&nbsp;(z\u00e0i ji\u00e0n), is a more formal way to take leave, and I hear this much less frequently than \u62dc\u62dc (b\u00e0i b\u00e0i). It literally translates to \u2018again to see\u2019, and although \u518d\u89c1, is often taught as \u2018goodbye\u2019, it\u2019s translation puts it closer to meaning \u2018see you again\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/zaihui\/9687\/2\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u518d\u4f1a<\/a>&nbsp;(z\u00e0i&nbsp;hu\u00ec) Goodbye\/Till we meet again<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u518d\u4f1a&nbsp;(z\u00e0i hu\u00ec) is similar to \u518d\u89c1 (z\u00e0i ji\u00e0n), but is often used in business situations. It also has a history of being used within ancient Chinese poetry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%88%91%E8%B5%B0%E5%95%A6&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6211\u8d70\u5566<\/a>&nbsp;(w\u01d2 z\u01d2u la) I\u2019m going<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/-Im-going-e1461923415175.png?resize=600%2C399&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\u6211\u8d70\u5566 I'm going\" class=\"wp-image-5353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/-Im-going-e1461923415175.png?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.writtenchinese.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/-Im-going-e1461923415175.png?resize=510%2C339&amp;ssl=1 510w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%88%91%E8%B5%B0%E5%95%A6&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6211\u8d70\u5566<\/a>&nbsp;(w\u01d2 z\u01d2u la), is often shortened even further to just \u2018\u8d70\u5566\u2019 (z\u01d2u la) and means \u2018I\u2019m going\u2019. The personal pronoun of \u6211 (w\u01d2) &#8211; I\/me can be removed in spoken Chinese, as it already implied that it is \u2018I\u2019 who is leaving. This phrase has a different context than to say goodbye, but is frequently used to anticipate leaving a place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The particle, \u5566 (la), is a contraction of the particles <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/le\/35\/1\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u4e86<\/a>&nbsp;(le) and <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/a\/7503\/1\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u554a<\/a>&nbsp;(a).

This is a useful phrase to use if you have another engagement you need to be at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%98%8E%E5%A4%A9%E8%A7%81&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u660e\u5929\u89c1<\/a>&nbsp;(m\u00edng ti\u0101n ji\u00e0n) See you tomorrow<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Use this phrase if you\u2019ve planned to see your friend the next day. You can also say <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E4%B8%8B%E6%AC%A1%E8%A7%81&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u4e0b\u6b21\u89c1<\/a>&nbsp;(xi\u00e0 c\u00ec ji\u00e0n), which means \u2018see you next time\u2019. This suggests you\u2019ve not set a specific date to meet again and be used more freely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/manzou\/9148\/3\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6162\u8d70<\/a>&nbsp;(m\u00e0n z\u01d2u) Take care<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>When you leave a taxi, a restaurant or even a shop, the taxi driver or waiting staff, will almost certainly use this phrase. We translate it to mean \u2018take care\u2019, but the literal translation is more like \u2018slowly leave\u2019 or \u2018take your time\u2019. Taking your time over things is certainly a cultural trait.&nbsp;It&#8217;s common to hear other similar phrases such as <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%85%A2%E6%85%A2%E5%90%83&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6162\u6162\u5403<\/a>&nbsp;(m\u00e0n m\u00e0n ch\u012b), or take your time eating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%9C%89%E7%A9%BA%E5%86%8D%E8%81%8A&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6709\u7a7a\u518d\u804a<\/a>&nbsp;(y\u01d2u k\u00f2ng z\u00e0i li\u00e1o) Let\u2019s talk again when you have time.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>This phrase should be used between friends, but it\u2019s also very natural. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/youkong\/43672\/2\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6709\u7a7a<\/a>&nbsp;(y\u01d2u k\u00f2ng) means \u2018to have time\u2019 and <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/worddetail\/liao\/16857\/1\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u804a<\/a>&nbsp;(li\u00e1o) means to talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E4%B8%8B%E6%AC%A1%E5%86%8D%E7%BA%A6&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u4e0b\u6b21\u518d\u7ea6<\/a>&nbsp;(xi\u00e0 c\u00ec z\u00e0i yu\u0113) Let\u2019s do this again sometime.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly to the previous phrase, <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%9C%89%E7%A9%BA%E5%86%8D%E8%81%8A&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6709\u7a7a\u518d\u804a<\/a>&nbsp;(y\u01d2u k\u00f2ng z\u00e0i li\u00e1o), this is used between friends or acquaintances, to suggest a repeat meeting or party.

Since the word translates as \u2018play\u2019 in English, it may seem a little strange to have your grown up friend as you to \u2018go out and play\u2019, but this is just a way or suggesting whatever you will do together will be fun or amusing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%9C%89%E6%97%B6%E9%97%B4%E6%9D%A5%E7%8E%A9&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6709\u65f6\u95f4\u6765\u73a9 <\/a>&nbsp;(y\u01d2u sh\u00ed ji\u0101n l\u00e1i w\u00e1n) Come back when you have time<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another similar phrase, with the phrase \u2018when you have time\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.writtenchinese.com\/#sk=%E6%9C%89%E6%97%B6%E9%97%B4%E6%9D%A5%E7%8E%A9&amp;svt=pinyin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u6709\u65f6\u95f4<\/a>&#8230; (y\u01d2u sh\u00ed ji\u0101n) replacing the previous \u2018next time\u2019.
