    おはようございます

    Ohay ō (おはよう) is the greeting that means "good morning." Ohay ō gozaimasu (おはよ
    うございます) is a more polite greeting, because gozaimasu (ございます) increases the
    politeness level of the phrase.

    Konnichi wa (こんにちは） is the general greeting that means "hi" or "hello. It can also
    means "good day".

    こんばんは

    Konban wa (こんばんは) is the greeting that means "good evening." It comes from the

    JAPANESEPOD101.COM BASIC JAPANESE S1 #3 - BASIC JAPANESE #3: BASIC GREETINGS 2 4


    short form of a sentence "Konban wa yoi ban desu ne .(今晩はよい晩ですね。)" which
    means "it's a good evening tonight."

    おやすみなさい

    Oyasumi nasai (おやすみなさい） is a phrase which is usually used before going to bed.
    This comes from the verb, yasumu (休む) which means "to take a rest" or "to go to bed."
    O- (お) is the prefix to add the politeness of a phrase. So, it literally means "please go to
    bed" in a polite way.

    Language T ip

    When you say Oyasuminasai (おやすみなさい) to your family or close friend, you can say
    just Oyasumi (おやすみ) in a casual way.
