Saying goodbye....

How do you say "Goodbye" in your own dialect or in your language? Since I live in the Philippines and I speak Filipino, we say "Paalam!" or "Hanggang sa muli!" (literally: Till then). How do you say it in your own tongue? State your nationality and your native tongue and how you say it! ^_^x

Yeah, one of our musicians uses it. It's like his signature. His name is John Williamson and he's a true blue aussie! lol.

In sinhalese, it is "Ginin Ennam" meaning, "I am going, but will come back again". Cos we never stop by saying "I am going" cos we feel it would bring bad luck"
