Signification
To experience a pleasant day.
Contexte culturel
Brazilians are very warm; adding a smile makes the phrase much more effective. In Portugal, it is equally common but sometimes delivered with a slightly more reserved tone. In both countries, this is the gold standard for ending any service interaction.
The Nasal 'o'
Don't pronounce the 'm' in 'bom' as a hard 'm'. It is a nasal vowel, like the 'on' in French 'bon'.
Smile!
In Brazil, the tone of voice is just as important as the words. A friendly tone makes the phrase sound genuine.
