Best Answer

it's sometimes awkward when asked this question because Cantonese-speakers usually say 'bye' just as people who speak English do--by saying 'bye' or 'byebye.' But since you're probably asking for some phrase in Chinese/Cantonese, there's one pronounced "zoy geen"--literally meaning 'see you again'
