How to Say “See You Tomorrow” in French

à demain
/a d(ə).mɛ̃/

À demain is used specifically when you are certain or expect to see the person the very next day. If you do not know exactly when you will see the person again, you should use à plus tard instead.
Meaning: see you tomorrow (phrase)

What does it mean word for word?

The phrase is composed of the preposition à (to/at) and the noun demain (tomorrow).
