You know, he's right. Why does everyone say "ciao" as goodbye?
"Why does everyone say "ciao" as goodbye?"
Watching too many bad gangster movies maybe.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciao http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=ciao
Turns out you're both right. Interesting etymology behind the word.
"why in hell does everyone think Ciao Is goodbye !WFT!"
New question; What is "WFT"? ;o)
I've seen mwah used as the sound one might make when kissing someone good-bye, so that may be where mmwa comes in to play?
ciao is used by 2 of my italian friends as hello and as goodbye. apparently its used for both.
Q. Anyone know what mmwa means from someone?
A. I think it should be "mmwah", which could mean a smack kiss.
WFT?? Maybe it should be "WTF" ?

WTF means What the Phuck(its susposed to be F---U---<---|<)....and W/E means what ever......d/l means download and........ttyl means talk to you later

what does ILADP mean?
In Switzerland, ciao is used mainly as good bye but in some regions people use it as hello as well.
you guys are all fuck heads who dont kno what any of these abreviations are which is pretty pathetic. what is even more pathetic is that you talk to other people on the internet to find out what they mean.. like WTF dont yu have anybody else to ask.
Yes, because we don't automatically know what all these abbreviations means, that makes us pathetic. Yes, that's exactly it -- you nailed it. We are obviously not spending enough time in chat rooms. We suck
what does NOB mean
what does NOB mean
what does suck my long dong mean? please help me
- Noob (aka noob, noobie) = newbie
- ttfn = ta ta for now (or tar tar for now if you're English)
imho = in my humble openion
- lmao = laughing my ass off
- lmmfao = laughing my mother f'ing ass off; any other letters added are swear words or the stupid 'slang' of foul words such as mutha instead of mother
- rofl = rolling on (the) floor laughing
- roflmao = see rofl and lmao
There are web sites out there posting these things (computer slang)... but this is where I'm gonna stop now and not make this one of them.
To the poster(s) calling everyone names and using foul language to make such a little person feel big ----> LMGDMFAO at you for being "so big" with your talk but you can't post your real name, phone number (including area code), full postal address, e-mail address, your school schedule, what streets you walk alone on when your mommy aint with you and all that good sh-ite, |3 i o t c h!
"ciao in Italian is used just as "salut" is in French. Can be "hi" or "bye" depending on context.
Does anybody know what =^..^= means ?
=^..^= is a little face. The Japanese often use that kind of thing instead of smileys.
LOL what a hilarious thread.... LOL
what does salve mean?
what does asl mean, and does it have any preverted or sexual connotations? does it mean "ass hole" because when i pronounce asl it sounded alot like it.
what does the asian slang word "nube" mean
Lol this thread creases me up :P
btw what does asl mean, and does it have any preverted or sexual connotations? does it mean ?ass hole? because when i pronounce asl it sounded alot like it.
ASL is Age Sex Location.
asian slang word nube :S dunno :)
bump means 'bump up my post'
WTF means "what the f*", W/E means "whatever, D/L means "download" and TTYL means" talk to you later". Committment in my opinion is to put your trust in someone...and others are able to put their trust in you, to commit.
-- Noob (aka noob, noobie) = newbie --
Actually, noob, noobie, noobette, n00b, noob dude, etc., etc., actually means a person who is mildly retarded. Or just retarded and acts like a fool. A newbie is a person who's new and doesn't know how something works and asks questions like "How do you upload pictures on this site?" or "How do I private message someone?". :]
PM = private message nube = (probably) means noob =^..^= not only Japanese people use this face.
ya know they have a page on aim that has a billion acronyms that no one uses...
does anyone know what hakoaypp would mean?
wat does w/e mean, its driving me mad!!
Ciao specifically translates as 'hello'. It's pronounced 'chow'. The reason some people use it as goodbye is because in some (not all) parts of Italy it is 'slang' for goodbye as well as hello because it's accepted by the listener as 'until we meet again'.
It is not accepted in Italy in print form as 'goodbye' because to use it in slang requires a slight downward deflection in the pronunciation or a wave of the hand so the listener 'receives' either a verbal or visual clue as to your meaning.
I live in Italy and have never seen ciao used at the end of an email, letter, memo or note.
if someone said to me QQ,,,,what does that mean
Ciao is Hi in Italitan but ALSO means goodbye but like hi. There are similar words in french spanish and German and YES I speak those languages. Arrivederci is a more formal way of saying goodbye.
A good translation would be: Ciao = Nite Nite / Arrivederci = Good Evening
Mwah is a kiss.
La er is pronounced like a Londoner for Later. We don't pronounce our "t's"
Enjoy
Ciao
my question is...will any one do me
i now know roflmao means Rolling On the Floor Laughing My Ass Off
what does mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmwah! mean

Ciao is pronounced "chow"? Well, you learn something new everyday.
People are so mean on here! Should be somebody watching this tbh.. It's really disturbing..
W/e- Whatever.. Lmao- Laughing my arse off.. D/l- Download.. D/c- Disconnected.. Lol- Laugh out loud.. Rofl- Rolling on the floor laughing.. That's all that I can think of?
Hi what does w/e mean?
lol...wow i am so thank ful to people who took the time to write down the explanations of all the words! thank you, once again!
WTF? dose asl mean lol
hakoaypp - Anyone know this one?
What does "lmao" mean ?
My grandparents, who spoke Italian, always told us that arrivederci was more of a 'see you later' kind of a comment instead of just 'goodbye' as ciao means.
