Picture the moment someone is leaving for good: you are at the door or the platform, and what you say is a wish for the road ahead — fare well, may things go well for you. The word is that , and also the occasion built around it.

可以想成:有人要離開了、而且不是明天就見得到的那種——你站在門口或月台上,說的其實是一句祝福:fare well,願更多收起可以想成:有人要離開了、而且不是明天就見得到的那種——你站在門口或月台上,說的其實是一句祝福:fare well,願你一路順利。farewell 就是這個道別,也可以指為了道別而辦的那場活動。

固定說法:為離別辦的場合

把道別做成一件正式的事:辦一頓飯、一場派對、一次致詞,讓大家一起送人。這個意思要放在名詞前面當修飾語才成立。
