Hi,

In informal messages it's very common to write "tc" at the end of chat.

What does it mean exactly and what should be the response to it?

Regards,

Tamta

Hello Tamta,

I take a guess, "tc" could mean "take care".

Take care

It is a informal greeting to say good bye, mainly used in letters or e-mail.
If a friend says good bye to you with; "take care" the response could be " you too".

Take care
