Thanks for the article, it's great. But FYI, the word 'ciao' is in Italian, and it means both 'hello' as well as 'goodbye'. On the other hand, the word 'chau', is in Spanish, and it means only 'goodbye', which would be more appropriate in this context :)

Ah, thanks for the info mate. Today years old. Always thought ciao meant "Goodbye". Will update it.

You were almost right, in Spanish it does. Chau = Adios = Goodbye. Chau more coloquial, adios slightly more formal...both used extensively.

Thank you for the great article. Cheers.

Glad it helped. PS. For some reason "Chau" did not sound good in my head. So went with Adios :D
