Chinese phrase
不要走〜 bú yào zǒu 〜
Meaning
Please don't go ___
When to use it
A polite request for someone to stay instead of leaving. It is common in casual speech when the speaker still has something to say or ask, and the drawn-out ending adds a soft, informal tone.
Example dialogue
你不要走，我还有几句话想问你。 nǐ bú yào zǒu wǒ hái yǒu jǐ jù huà xiǎng wèn nǐ
Don't go yet; I still have a few questions to ask you.
好的，那我再等5分钟。 hǎo de nà wǒ zài děng 5 fēn zhōng
All right, then I'll wait five more minutes.
