bye bye
Waving while leaving
Bye bye is a casual, often affectionate way of saying goodbye.
It carries a slightly childlike or playful tone, common when speaking to children or in lighthearted farewells: Bye bye, sweetie!
Adults use it informally with friends and family, though it can sound dismissive in other contexts: Bye bye, nice knowing you.
