Is this Chinese or what?

[Person]

Well, A long time ago, I discovered my friend's twitter and this is what she wrote and it's supposed to be in chinese which I don't think its chinese but here it is:
Zài jiàn
What exactly does that mean?
Please answer!!!

[Bill W]

Yes, it's Chinese. It means good-bye, or more accurately, see you later.

[cimonepugh]

Yep. It means 'good bye' in Chinese. (It's written in Pinyin, the romanzied form of the Chinese language.)

[H. M. C]

Bill says it means see you later .. Close enough. However, the literal translation is See you again.

再 zai means again 見 jian means see.

it's phonetic transcription called pinyin...
the phrase you posted means "see you later"...
in Chinese it looks like this ->再见
