Good afternoon/Hello こんにちは (konnichiwa) Read as: cone-knee-chee-wa Good morning おはよう （ございます） (ohayou [gozaimasu]) > Gozaimasu is optional, but if you add it to the end of your sentence, it becomes polite. N/B: Most Japanese are polite. You don't want to stand out! Read as: oh-hi-yo! go-zi-e-mas Good evening こんばんは (konbanwa) Read as: cone - barn without 'r' - wa In my humble opinion, all "Read as" are... rubbish? You can just Google a site that teaches you to pronounce: a, i, u, e, o [NOT a, e, i, o, u -- It's different] And the rest are self-explanatory! You will get what I mean if you learn to pronounce that 5 letters. Cheers.

Depending on time of day, there are different possible greetings... Morning: Ohaiyo (gozaimasu) Afternoon: Konnichiwa Evening(generally after sunset): Konbanwa The gozaimasu is used in formal context, like a business meeting or meeting someone new...it's generally left out if it in a friendly context.... I'm unsure whether or not it's used with the other two, but i'm going to assume it's not since i've never heard it used with them, at least not often..
