Buenos means “good” and ��í���� literally means “days” in Spanish, but refers to daylight or the morning more generally. Taken together, the two mean “good day” or “good morning”.

When buenos ����� became a familiar greeting in Spanish is unclear. Both words derive from Latin, and the expression could have been used in post-classical Latin as early as the 400s a.d.

Today, the expression buenos ��í���� is commonly used by Spanish speakers around the world as a polite and friendly morning “hello” to friends and strangers alike.��

After lunch, people swap out buenos ��í���� for buenas tardes (“good afternoon”) in most Spanish-speaking countries. After dinner or when it’s become dark, people use buenas noches (“good night”).

Spanish speakers of all levels, from native speakers to first-time learners, use buenos ��í���� as a polite greeting in the morning before roughly 12–2pm. Spanish-language morning shows may use buenos ��í���� in their names (e.g., NBC Telemundo’s Buenos Días Miami). The phrase is sometimes even hashtagged as #buenosdias on social media.
