معنی
A farewell wishing someone a pleasant day.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Bonjour' and 'Bonne journée' ritual is non-negotiable in small shops. Failing to say them can result in noticeably colder service. In Quebec, 'Bonjour' can sometimes be used as a farewell, similar to 'Good day' in older English. However, 'Bonne journée' is still the standard for wishing someone well. Belgians use 'Bonne journée' just like the French, but you might find the tone slightly more informal in certain regions. In French-speaking Switzerland, politeness is extremely important. 'Bonne journée' is often followed by 'Au plaisir' (To the pleasure of seeing you again).
The 5 PM Rule
Switch to 'Bonne soirée' at 5 PM in winter and 6 PM in summer. When in doubt, listen to what others are saying!
Not a Hello
If you say 'Bonne journée' as a greeting, people will think you are leaving immediately. Stick to 'Bonjour' for hellos.
