How to Say ‘Take care!’ in Traditional Chinese
慢走喔！
màn zǒu ō
[màn dzoh oh]
💬 Usage Tip: Literally it's "walk slowly". It's a fixed send-off meaning "take care on your way", not an instruction about speed.
🇹🇼 In Taiwan: It's what the host or shopkeeper says to someone leaving, usually in reply to 我先走了. The person leaving doesn't say it back.
