Kwa heri (two words, not one) means "good-bye." To two or more people together one says Kwa herini (accent on penultimate syllable).

Kwa rhymes with the first syllable of the word "father." The kw corresponds to the English sound qu. So the kwa sound is the same as the qua and "quandary."

Heri is most often pronounced as the English word "hairy," the r slightly trilled, but many Swahili speakers (especially coastal Swahilis) give a gutteral kh sound to the h.
