人生有聚就有散,有关告别的表达方式很多｡而且“告别语”的使用也要随情景的变化而变化｡本文拟对各种各样“告别”用语及其用法作一简单归纳,以供大家参考｡
　　
　　一､ 直接的告别语有:
　　Goodbye! (Byebye! Bye! )
　　See you(tomorrow)!
　　See you later.

　　I’m afraid I must be going now.

　　I think I must be leaving now.
　　I mustn’t take up too much of your time.

　　最后,請大家注意以下几点:
　　1. “Goodbye!”是英语里比较正式且最普通的告别用语｡在实际生活当中,这句话一般用于与陌生人或年长的人告别｡
　　2. “Bye-bye.”､“Bye.” 和“See you.”则是比较随便的告别用语,原为儿童用语,如今,在家庭成员内部､同学之间､好友之间常用｡“See you.”这句话的变体形式很多,变化方法也很灵活｡意思比较笼统的有:See you again. 比较具体的说法有: See you later./See you tomorrow./See you next week.
　　3. “Good luck!”通常用于友人作长途旅行前的道别用语,意为“请多保重”｡
　　4. “It’s nice to meet you.”是见面时的问候语,而“It’s nice seeing you.”和“Nice to have met you.”则是道别用语｡
　　5. “See you later.”常用于平时暂别而下次没有约定时间的情况｡
　　6. Good day.=Have a good day. 是含祝愿的告别语｡
