How do you say bye in Cherokee?

There isn't a single word for "bye" in Cherokee, but the closest translation would be:

"A-do-gv-ni" (pronounced ah-doh-guh-nee)

This literally means "I'm going now," and is used as a general farewell.

However, depending on the context and relationship, other phrases can be used, such as:

* "A-do-gv-gi" (pronounced ah-doh-guh-gee) - "I'm going" (more informal)

* "A-do-gv-ni ts'i-yo" (pronounced ah-doh-guh-nee tsi-yo) - "I'm going, see you"

* "A-do-gv-ni yv-si" (pronounced ah-doh-guh-nee yv-si) - "I'm going, come again" (more formal)

It's important to note that the pronunciation of Cherokee is unique, and there are resources available online that can help you learn the proper sounds.
