July 16, 2009: Issue 298
As managing editor Kathleen Armentrout prepares to leave us, let’s take a look at how to spell and punctuate some terms of farewell:
adios
arrivederci
au revoir
bye-bye
ciao
Godspeed
good-bye
sayonara
shalom
ta-ta
And then there are these three, which rarely confuse anyone but still apply today:
good luck
thanks for everything
we’ll miss you
