How to Say Goodbye<\/p>\n

The English word \u201cgoodbye\u201d is derived from the pharse \u201cGod be with you.\u201d\u00a0 Parting words in other languages are similar. In Spanish, it\u2019s adios (ah-dee-ohs), in French adieu (ah-dyur).\u00a0 Both words literally mean \u201cto God\u201d.<\/p>\n

There are other ways to \u201cgoodbye\u201d, however.\u00a0 English children shout \u201cCheerio\u201d when parting and in Switzerland. Germany and Italy they say ciao (chow) which is the informal way of saying \u201cgoodbye\u201d in Italian.<\/p>\n

A wave\u00a0 of the hand accompanies most goodbyes, at least in the West.\u00a0 In Japan, people bow when they part, and Hindus press their hands together and say \u201cNamaste\u201d, just as they do when greeting one another.<\/p>\n

In some households, in India, it\u2019s considered a bad omen to say \u201cgoodbye\u201d.\u00a0 Instead people say, \u201cgo and come back\u201d.\u00a0 If you are the one leaving , you announce, \u201cI\u2019m going and I will be back.\u201d<\/p>\n

How many languages can you teach your host kids to say \u201cgoodbye\u201d.\u00a0 Amaze your host parents at by having the kids say goodbye from around the world at the dinner table.<\/p>\n
