Could also be: We are going to miss you (formal). - 0074b507, Oct 24, 2011

Answer 1

We're going to miss him. Which is more commonly said in Spain, in Latin America the verb extrañar I think is more commonly used for missing people instead of echar de menos.

You mean it is commonly used in Mexico. I am Colombian and we do not use "echar" but extrañar. I also know that probaly all South America uses "extrañar" - farallon7, Oct 24, 2011

Answer 2

That is an expression used basically in Mexico. In Mexican it means We are going to miss him. If you want to learn and use a better Spanish, you should consider. "Lo vamos a extrañar" The verb Extrañar "to miss" can be confusing sometimes. If you want to say, "That is wierd" you would say "Tan extraño!" but this word extraño has nothing to do with the verb.
