Kohtumiseni!

Until we meet again!

意思

A polite way to say see you later.

🌍

文化背景

Estonians often value brevity. A quick 'Kohtumiseni!' with a nod is considered perfectly polite and respectful of the other person's time. In Finland, the equivalent 'Näkemiin' is used similarly, but Estonians use 'Kohtumiseni' more frequently in casual settings than Finns use their formal 'until meeting' equivalent. Expats often find 'Kohtumiseni' easier to pronounce than 'Nägemiseni' because of the 'õ' sound in other greetings. It's the 'safe' word for new learners. In the world of e-Estonia, 'Kohtumiseni' is the standard sign-off for professional emails, replacing the more stiff 'Parimate soovidega' (With best wishes) in ongoing threads.
