Alternative Ways to Say ‘Goodbye’ in English - Improve Your Natural English Speaking Skills

Hi everyone! Thanks for joining me for another blog post! Today we will be having a short speaking skills lesson.

GOODBYE is one of the most commonly used words in the English language, and one that most of us use multiple times a day, but do you know how to say goodbye in a different way? In this practical communication lesson, I will teach you many helpful alternative words and expressions for ‘goodbye’ so that you can replace the overused version and make your farewell greetings sound more natural and impressive.

Click on the video below to watch and learn, and read the transcript underneath to check your understanding and revise today's grammar topic. Also, at the bottom of this post, you'll find a useful summary of the most important points to remember.

I hope that you enjoy this lesson - feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, I'm always happy to help.

TRANSCRIPT OF THE ABOVE VIDEO: 'Alternative Ways To Say ‘Goodbye’ in English - Improve Your Natural English Speaking Skills'

Hi everyone, its Nicole here, and I'm answering another one of your questions.

One of my students actually asked me today ‘How can I say goodbye in a different way?’ and, you know, that's actually a really really good question because we usually just say bye, or see you later, or goodbye, but we never really say anything else.

So, I thought that maybe we could have a look at a few different ways of saying goodbye just to make it more interesting for you.

So, obviously we've got bye, or bye-bye, or goodbye, you know, many people say see you later, or in British English they often say farewell or cheerio, I don't know if you've heard that before, that's a funny one. I often say see you, or see you next time.

You could also say something like take care, or ok I'm off now, see you, or gotta go, bye. Or see you later alligator - have you heard of that? In a while crocodile.

Um, you know, depending on the time of day you can say good night, or catch you later, keep in touch, see you soon, I’ve got to go now, talk to you later, have a great day, see you next week, bye.

I don't know - there's a few, I'll have a think about it, but they're the most commonly used words for goodbye. Hope that helps - just a really short quick video today. Bye!


How was the learning video? Did it help you learn some alternative ways to say goodbye? I hope so!

Let me summarise the most important points for you to remember:

-bye
-bye-bye
-goodbye
-see you later
-farewell
-cheerio
-see you
-see you next time
-take care
-ok I'm off now, see you

That's all you need to know - there are lot's of alternatives, aren't there! I hope that this video has been helpful and enjoyable for you and I look forward to teaching you some more alternative expressions t boost your speaking and conversation skills in the near future.

Thanks for taking the time to learn with me, it is a great pleasure helping you!
