In Telugu, we don’t say “goodbye”instead, we say “వెళ్ళొస్తా Veḷḷostā” Translated “i will go and i will be back” we are taught and even lectured to say this instead of just “i will go” until the phrase becomes a habit, it is a feeling, a sense of hope that they would not be leaving forever and will always return, no matter what.
