Great to see you all again! Last time we learned how to say hello in German. Today we're learning how to say goodbye politely - just as important for making good impressions!
Imagine you're visiting Berlin and it's time to leave your new German friends. What do you say? In Germany, people use different goodbye phrases depending on the time of day and how well they know someone.
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
- Use 8 different German goodbye phrases
- Choose formal vs informal goodbyes
- Say goodbye like a native German speaker
Before we learn goodbyes, let's quickly review the greetings from last time. Click each word to refresh your memory!
Here are today's new German goodbye phrases. Notice how some are casual (with friends) and others more formal (with adults). Click each phrase to hear how it's pronounced!
See the English phrase first and try saying the German goodbye before flipping the card! This helps your memory stick.
Listen carefully to each goodbye phrase and click the matching tile on your bingo card. First to get a line shouts 'Bingo!'
