Good Morning/Good Night


Why is it that when I say, "Good morning" to someone I'm essentially saying, "Hello", but when I say "Good night" to someone I'm saying, "Goodbye".
If it is in the night shouldn't I be able to say "Good night" the same way I say "Good morning" and have it mean "Hello."

i just re-read that about 50 times an I don't understand what you are saying

I got it.

Tacy. You need to have a top hat on and a cane. Then when you say "Good night" you need to tip you hat. Then it will mean "hello."

Katy I re- read it as well! I was for sure she had a typo or something. I finally understood it and its a very good question.

I like you mom's comment. It made me laugh.

So say "Good Evening" instead, that's less goodbye-like...

a little too complex to thing about... hahaha. i would almost say the opposite that when you said "good morning" then it would mean good-bye
