SpeekuHow to sayHow to say goodbye in European Portuguese
What people say, and how it sounds.
The answer
goodbyeadeus/ɐˈdewʃ/

see you tomorrowaté amanhã/ɐˈtɛ ɐmɐˈɲɐ̃/
The short answer
Adeus is the everyday goodbye in Portugal, to a shopkeeper or a neighbour. Tchau is the quick one between friends.
When you know you will meet again, say when: até logo (later today), até amanhã (tomorrow). The Portuguese like a goodbye that comes with a date.
a-DEUSH
The stress is on the second syllable, and the final s is the Portuguese sh: a-DEUSH. In até the stress is on the é, and logo has two open o sounds, like the o in lot.
