뜻
Refers to the period between midday and evening.
문화적 배경
The 'Boa tarde' greeting starts exactly at 12:00 PM, even if you haven't had lunch yet. In some regions, 'de tarde' is used more often in speech than 'à tarde'. Afternoon tea (lanche) is a significant tradition. People often meet 'à tarde' specifically for this meal around 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM. In African Lusophone countries, 'à tarde' is often the time when the community gathers after the peak midday heat has passed.
The Crase Rule
If you are talking about a time of day (morning, afternoon, night), morning uses 'de', but afternoon and night use 'à'.
Don't forget the accent
In written Portuguese, omitting the crase in 'à tarde' is a very common spelling error even for natives, but it's grammatically incorrect.
