This is an ultimate video to learn how to say bye in 10 different situations More specifically, what to say when leaving So without any further ado, let's get started So the first situation is saying bye to your friends casually And we say Ja is well done Ne is a sentence ending particle that shows like sharing feeling And it makes it sound more friendly If you want to sound more masculine, you can also say Just replace the ne to na If you drop the ne, you can also use it to someone who's older Like But you wouldn't really wave And another phrase you can use is Mata is again And ne is the same thing, like sharing the feeling If you want to make it masculine, you can say But if you know when you're meeting them the next time You can say see you tomorrow by saying If you're meeting them next week, you can say And for those phrases, you can also add And you can also say, probably this is the easiest one You can say It's really really casual I still use it sometimes Just like on the phone Like combining the two You can also combine Well done See you again You can also combine the two and use that to someone older A little formal version You can say So second situation is at night when you're like For example, after dinner or after party You can say Oyasumi literally means good night But it's used like have a good night And formally, you can say Now moving on to the next one Third one is when you're leaving where you belong Like home or group So when you're the one leaving, you want to say Is coming from iku, to go But it's a te form of iku So to go And kimasu is I'll come back So the dictionary form is kuru And the mass form is kimasu So together Means I'll go and come back So you're implying You're telling them that you're planning to come back You can use it at home or you can also use it outside If someone is leaving saying Right You can say Again, it's to go Iku te form And rasshai is actually shortened version of irasshai Irasshai means welcome in or come in So itterasshai means please go and come back Please go and come back Why did I say twice? So leaving your house is ittekimasu, right? But what about when you're leaving someone's house as a guest And this is the fourth one You say This is actually lost in translation But let me explain that as much as I can Jama means bothering or intrusion And shimashita means I did So it means I bothered you Translate that literally It's more like thank you for having me When you're leaving as a guest This is important You're the guest This is a formal way of saying this And there's no casual way I would still use that with my friends When I'm invited to their house and then I'm leaving I would still say But when you're leaving Japanese friends might come and see you off at the door Or even to for example to the parking lot or something So if you're the one inviting them Especially Japanese people And saying bye Please try to see them off until you can't see them anymore Don't just turn around and then go to your place See them off and it's a nice gesture And very very caring So fifth one is I would say I really like the English phrase of Have a good day or have a good evening Or you know those phrases We do have it But we don't really use it We have Good day It's actually a shortened version of Is please spend a good day I've never really heard it used in Japan And I'd say it sounds more caring and friendly If you cheer them for what they're going to do next Or what they are working on For example, if you want to say Enjoy or have fun You can say It's literally have fun Enjoy And ね is the sharing feeling As I said previously And formally you can say For example, if they're going on a date You can say Have fun Enjoy If they're going to a party You can say Don't worry It doesn't sound ironic that you didn't get invited But I'm kidding And the next one is You want to cheer for them Like good luck Or do your best You can say がんばって literally means good luck Or do your best The formal one is For example, when they're taking a test very soon You can say If they are having an interview You can say Interview Another phrase that shows your caring-ness is means take care Especially when someone is traveling home Like driving home Or taking the train home Or even the plane For example, if they are driving home You can say Formal version is Don't wave If you're speaking the polite one But if you want to show like friendliness You can kind of wave Depends on what kind of relationship you have with the person So far there are casual phrases and formal phrases From here I'm gonna explain more of How to say bye to strangers And also like at work If you are liking this video Please give it a thumbs up And yeah Continue watching Next one is When someone's sick You don't just say bye, right?
