This is a simple way of saying goodbye to your friends. The polite way of saying goodbye is "SAYOONARA."
"Jaa ne." = See you.
"Bai bai. Mata ashita." = Bye. I'll see you again tomorrow.
Note: In the system of romanization used in this section, "ee" is not pronounced like feet. Instead, it means that the vowel sound "e" as in pet is prolonged. In the same manner, "oo" is pronounced not like shoot but as the "o" vowel, similar to pork, pronounced twice as long.
