How to Say ‘Best regards / Please treat me well’ in Japanese
よろしく
yoroshiku
[yoh-roh-shee-koo]
💬 Usage Tip: [よろしく] often doesn't translate neatly word-for-word; in [よろしくお願いします], it means something like "please look on me favorably" or "I hope we can work well together." You'll also hear it in many set phrases, so learn it as a flexible social word rather than a literal one.
