Take it easy
意味: A farewell phrase meaning 'goodbye' or advice to relax and not work too hard.
'Take it easy' works as both a goodbye ('Take it easy, man') and actual advice ('Take it easy — you've been working too hard'). As a farewell, it's warm and casual, suggesting you care about the person's wellbeing. The Eagles' iconic 1972 song cemented this phrase in American culture.
