"Adiós", "hasta luego", "hasta pronto", are some formal ways to say goodbye.

"Chau", "chao", "bye", "nos vemos", are some more informal ways to say the same.

In Mexico, people tend to use "bye" most of the time.

A common way to say goodbye here is "Cuídate, bye" (Take care of yourself, bye).



To say hello, we never say "¿qué pasa?", but "¿qué pasó?" (pretty much like "what's up?")
