Italian Word of the Day

Day 4 - the word is "buonasera"

Tell someone "buonasera" in the evening. After roughly 4 PM, the polite way to greet or bid farewell to someone is with buonasera.

Pronounce like buonasera as bwoh-nah seh-rah.

Buona means "good" while sera is an Italian noun meaning "evening." Since sera is feminine, the masculine adjective "buon" takes on the feminine form "buona."
