"Z┐i
Ji┐n" is more often used when the speaker or the one
spoken to, is to be away for a certain length of time.
It's perfectly normal to say " z┐i ji┐n " on the phone,
though it might still sound a bit odd when family
members or people live under the same roof say " z┐i
ji┐n " when going to work, going to class or just going
on some errands. " Z┐i ji┐n " is somewhat less often
used in non-putong hua environment for
daily encounters, though it has already made way into
most if not all vernaculars and it's now a standard word
to say on this occasion.

Wave hand to say:
Good-bye!
Chinese often wave hand, at times
from a distance, to say good-bye at
seeing-off, which would be mistaken
at times for greeting as saying "
hi! " by Westerners.
