Staff Answer

Typically, you would just simply say "khush aam deed (خوش آمدید)." While this phrase only means "welcome," it would be used also to mean "welcome back." However, you could also say "wapis khush aam deed (واپس خوش آمدید)," which is a more literal translation of the phrase "welcome back."

It is easy -- simply use "Merry Christmas!" It is an English expression and holiday, so it was copied right over, untouched, to Urdu.

Question

How do I say "goodbye" in Urdu?

Community Answer

"Allah hafez" OR "Khuda hafez". Either of these work, but if you aren't a Muslim or you aren't talking to a Muslim, "Khuda hafez" would be preferable. It's pronounced the same way it's read.
