LingoflyՑտեսութիւն and Յաջող: goodbye and bye
Ցտեսութիւն (tsdesut'yun) is built around the verb տեսնել (desnel) — to see — and literally means "until we see each other". It is the neutral farewell for every occasion: strangers, elders, offices, the phone. For example: “Ցտեսութիւն (tsdesut'yun), մինչ (minch) նոր (nor) հանդիպում” (hantibum) — Goodbye, until we meet again. A rule from the Western Armenian course: worked out on examples, not memorized as a wording.
How it works
Ցտեսութիւն (tsdesut'yun) is built around the verb տեսնել (desnel) — to see — and literally means "until we see each other". It is the neutral farewell for every occasion: strangers, elders, offices, the phone.
Յաջող (hachogh) is the informal "bye" between friends and equals. The initial յ reads "h" here and ջ reads "ch": ha-CHOGH. It is the short form of Յաջողութիւն (hachoghut'yun) — "good luck". The full word is also a farewell, meaning "bye" and "good luck" at once. As an ordinary noun յաջողութիւն (hachoghut'yun) means "success": մեծ (medz) յաջողութիւն (hachoghut'yun) (medz hachoghut'yun), a big success. Only its place in the sentence tells the two meanings apart.
The same root gave the impersonal verb յաջողիլ (hachoghil) — to succeed. The one who succeeded stands in the "to whom" form: ինծի (indzi) յաջողեցաւ (hachoghetsav) (indzi hachoghetsav).

How the rule settles in your head
A rule is not memorized from an explanation. It is memorized from an attempt to use it and a mistake — that is why the app delivers it mixed in with words, not as a separate lesson: it resurfaces exactly where you forgot it.
