معنی
A polite wish for someone to enjoy their weekend.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'fin de semana' often starts with 'la caña del viernes'—a social beer with colleagues immediately after work. The term 'El Buen Fin' refers to a massive national shopping weekend in November, similar to Black Friday. Sunday is the day for 'el asado' (barbecue) with family, which is the highlight of the weekend wish. It is very common to use 'Que descanse' (May you rest) alongside the weekend wish.
The 'Usted' Rule
When in doubt, use 'Que tenga' (formal). It's never rude to be too polite, but it can be awkward to be too informal with a stranger.
The Response
Always say 'Igualmente' (Likewise) back. It's the fastest way to sound like a native speaker.
