As in Portuguese there's only one way to say "Boa Noite!", always happens a misunderstanding on choosing between "Good Evening!" or "Good Night!".
- GOOD EVENING is more commonly used to greet the hosts and guests at the moment you arrive at an event. To say Hi!
- GOOD NIGHT is used when you are leaving the event, to say Goodbye!
Follow the examples:
- Hello, good evening and welcome to our new store.
- [...] Thank you so much for your attention. Good night everybody.
- - Good evening Mr. Banner, would you like some coffee?
- - I would love it, but I really have to go now. I'm sorry, good night!
