Pronunciation

Cultural Note
Unlike English, 'buenas noches' serves as both a greeting ('good evening') and a farewell ('good night'). In Spain, where dinner typically happens around 9-10 PM, this phrase starts being used later than in most other cultures. It is the standard greeting when arriving at a restaurant for dinner.
