    What it means

    “See you / until we meet again.” A warm, common farewell — slightly more personal than “do widzenia.” Used among friends, colleagues, and acquaintances.

    Vocabulary

    • zobaczenie — seeing (each other)
    • do zobaczenia — until seeing each other

    Grammar note

    'Do zobaczenia' uses the genitive of 'zobaczenie' after 'do'. More informal and warmer than 'do widzenia'.

    Cultural context

    One of the most common Polish farewells. Often shortened to just 'zobaczenia' in casual speech.
