The French equivalent of 'hello' depends upon the situation, and especially the formality or informality of the interaction. It may range from bonjour, which means 'good day', to salut, which is a multipurpose word and may mean 'greetings' among acquaintances and friends ['les copains']. The French equivalent of 'goodbye' may be 'adieu', 'a la prochaine [fois]', or 'au revoir'. The word 'adieu' means 'to God', and therefore tends to be more formal and final. The phrase a la prochaine [fois] is used widely among acquaintances and friends. In its word-by-word translation, the preposition 'a' means 'to'. The definite article 'la' means 'the'. The adjective 'prochaine' means 'next'. The noun 'fois', which often is dropped from the phrase, means 'time'. In the other common way of saying 'goodbye', au revoir, the preposition 'au' means 'to the'. The infinitive 'revoir', which means 'to see again', is used as the noun 'the seeing again'.
