How do you pronounce good night and eveaning in portuguise?

Here's how to pronounce "good night" and "evening" in Portuguese:

"Good night" in Portuguese is "boa noite"

* "Boa" is pronounced "bo-ah" (similar to "bow" in English, but with a slightly more open "o" sound)

* "Noite" is pronounced "noy-chee"

"Evening" in Portuguese is "boa tarde"

* "Boa" is pronounced the same as in "boa noite" (bo-ah)

* "Tarde" is pronounced "tar-dzee" (similar to "tar-dee" in English)

Important note: While "boa tarde" literally means "good afternoon," it's used as a greeting from midday to evening, similar to "good evening" in English.
