Etymology

edit

Probably from Portuguese boa tarde rather than derived naturally in Macanese, since *bô is not used in regular Macanese speech.

Interjection

edit

-tarde

  1. good afternoon!

Usage notes

edit
  • In written Macanese, the hyphen is very commonly used between the two words in "good"-type phrases and interjections.
