Italian Farewells are a way of expressing goodbye in the Italian language. The most common Italian Farewell is 'CIAO' which is pronounced 'CHOW'. CIAO is derived from the Venetian word for 'SLAVE' and is used as a friendly greeting or farewell. It is also used to express sympathy or regret. Other Italian Farewells include 'Arrivederci' which means 'until we meet again', 'Addio' which means 'goodbye forever', and 'Buon Viaggio' which means 'have a good journey'.
