Mach's gut!

Take care! (informal)

An informal farewell, wishing someone well.

🌍

문화적 배경

In Germany, 'Mach's gut' is often paired with a handshake or a brief hug (among close friends). It is a staple of 'Feierabend' (end of work) culture. While 'Mach's gut' is common, Austrians might use 'Pfiat di' (God protect you) in more traditional or rural settings, which carries a similar weight of well-wishing. Swiss German speakers often use 'Mach's guet' (the dialect version). It is used frequently in the same informal contexts as in Germany.

💡

The 's' is key

Always include the 's'. 'Mach gut' sounds like you're a robot with a missing file.

⚠️

Watch your boss

Unless your boss specifically asked to be called 'du', stick to 'Auf Wiedersehen'.
