See you later alligator

It is one of the informal ways of saying goodbye to someone. Apparently, this phrase has been derived from a 50's pop song. The person to whom this phrase is being said, says- 'In a while crocodile!'

This is an old use and still use for this catch phrase to tell someone see you. and the answer for it after while, crocodile, alligator and crocodile were brought for the sake of rhyme.

OK, see you later, alligator.
After while, crocodile.

See you later, alligator

A silly way of saying β€œgoodbye,” when you or someone else is leaving. It commands a response... β€œAfter while, crocodile.”

Originating in the 1950s, the correct response to β€œSee you later, alligator!” is β€œAfter while, crocodile!” It is NOT β€œIn a while, crocodile,” or even β€œAfter a while, crocodile.” As with most phrases and expressions, accuracy often gets lost through the years, like a giant game of telephone, so nowadays you will hear it said all three ways, but there is an original, correct way. β€œAFTER WHILE, crocodile!” :)

*Listen to the song, β€œSee You Later, Alligator,” by Bill Haley and the Comets, for reference.

Bob: β€œSee you later, alligator!”
Jane: β€œAfter while, crocodile!”
