How to Say “Goodbye” in Thai (Female)

แล้วเจอกันนะคะ
láew jəə gan ná kháfemale speaker, see you
A woman can say goodbye in Thai with แล้วเจอกันนะคะ (láew jəə gan ná khá), "see you again". ลาก่อนค่ะ (laa gòn khâ) is a more final goodbye, and สวัสดีค่ะ (sà-wàt-dee khâ) also works.
Meaning: farewell (phrase)

Ways to say it

“goodbye” in Thai
Thai Romanization Note
แล้วเจอกันนะคะ láew jəə gan ná khá female speaker, see you
ลาก่อนค่ะ laa gòn khâ female speaker, more final
สวัสดีค่ะ sà-wàt-dee khâ female speaker, polite

สวัสดี (sà-wàt-dee) works both at the start and the end of a talk, so it is the safe choice.

Which one should you use?

ลาก่อน (laa gòn) suggests you might not meet again soon, so people often prefer แล้วเจอกัน (láew jəə gan) for everyday partings.

How does it change in a sentence?

Women end statements with ค่ะ (khâ) and questions or softeners with คะ (khá). That is why นะคะ (ná khá) appears in the first phrase.

Did you know?

  • บ๊ายบาย (báai baai) is a playful Thai version of "bye bye" that young women often use.

Examples in context

  • ลาก่อนค่ะ ขอบคุณมากค่ะ
    laa gòn khâ, khòp khun mâak khâ
    Goodbye, thank you very much.
  • พรุ่งนี้เจอกันค่ะ
    phrûng-níi jəə gan khâ
    See you tomorrow.
