Dew
 
I know that it means "good bye" in Spanish(Spain). I was going to ask you if happen to know the origin of it. Is it also used in other Spanish-speaking-countries? I frequently read it on chats and it should mean "adeu", I'm not sure if I wrote it correct.

adeu is from the French word. It mean go with God. or Good bye.

a·dieu - goodbye, adios, Go with God, Vaya con Dios

so long, see you later, ciao, nos vemos, auf wiedershen, bye-bye,
see you around, see you later alligator...

There is an old expression that people use when speaking in front of people.
"Without further adieu." Without anymore fuss...

"Dew" on the other hand is water in the form of droplets that appears on thin, exposed objects in the morning or evening.
As the exposed surface cools by radiating its heat, atmospheric moisture condensese at a rate greater
than that at which it can evaporate, resulting in the formation of water droplets.

Dew is rocío en español. Also Rocío is a Spanish name for a woman. Por ejemplo: Rocío Dúcal.

"due" is a word that is pronounced the same way as dew. The library book is due. due=debido

Just to clarify things, "Adéu" is "goodbye" in Catalonian, not French.

Even Urban Dictionary has it:

Adiós (goodbye) in Català/Valencià. (Catalán/Valenciano.)

person 1: Ja em vaig, adéu. (Ya me voy, adiós.) (I'm leaving, bye.)

person 2: Val, adéu. (Vale, adiós.) (Okay, bye.)

It is heavily used in Catalonia and Valencia, of course. ;) :)

"adieu" is from French and "adéu" is from Catalán. Catalán is related to French and northern Italian.
It is also spoken on the Italian island of Sardegna también. gn=ñ
I spoke Italian one time to some people from Valencia who spoke
Catalán and they said they could understand me.
