How it's used
This phrase functions as a standard closing remark when parting ways with someone you expect to see again in the following week. It is versatile enough to be used in both professional settings and casual social interactions. Unlike formal written correspondence, it is rarely used as a standalone sentence in text messages unless you are confirming a specific appointment.
Examples
See you next week, bye.
Common phrases
meet next week
Common mistake
Do not confuse this with the Mandarin structure where the verb might come first. In Cantonese, the time phrase usually precedes the verb, so saying 見下星期 is unnatural and sounds like a direct translation error.
