How it's used

While 辭去 is standard and widely understood, it carries a formal tone that is often reserved for written documents or serious announcements. In casual, everyday conversation, native speakers almost always prefer using 辭職 or the more direct 唔撈喇 to express the same action.

Examples

Why did you suddenly resign from the chairman position?

Common phrases

ci4辭heoi3去zik1職mou6務

to resign from a position

ci4辭heoi3去gung1工zok3作

to quit a job

Common mistake

Learners often use 辭去 in casual settings where it sounds overly stiff or bureaucratic. If you are talking to friends about quitting a part time job, 唔撈 is much more natural than 辭去.
