How to Say See You Later in German

Saying “see you later” anywhere is as good as a goodbye. “bis spatter” is a very casual way to let someone know you are leaving. The meaning can be translated to until then.
This term is used when you are heading out but obviously intend on coming back at some point soon. You would use this term when leaving a friend’s house, or to family after a Sunday brunch. Not something you would usually say after leaving a business meeting or a doctor’s appointment.

The Garman language like English can have many ways to say pretty much the same thing. See you later can be goodbye, see ya, later, see you soon, see you in a bit. “Bis spater” is one of the most common ways to say goodbye in Germany and you can probably use it in a lot of situations while you are there.
