Conversation Starters
| Cajun French | English |
| Au revoir | Good-Bye |
| Bye-bye | Bye-bye |
| À plus tard | Later |
| À demain | See you tomorrow |
| On va se revoir plus tard | We'll see each other later |
| On va se reparler plus tard | We'll talk later |
| Il faut je m'en vas | I have to go |
| Il faut je fais route | I've got to hit the road |
| Soignez vous-autres! | Y'all take care! |
"Au revoir" is typically the polite form of saying good-bye, and it is to be remembered that the "v" here is not pronounced. So it will be more like "Au re'oir", or as some will say "À re'oir".
"On va se revoir" follows this same pattern, it is said "On va se re'oir"
