I've been pondering over this for quite some time. Romanian follows the same structure as all the other Romance languages when forming greetings. E.g. bună dimineaţă (good morning), bună ziuă (good day), bună dupămasă (good afternoon) and bună seară (good evening). But why is it noapte bună (good night)? It just doesn't make sense! I compared it with the other Romance languages, but I just can't find a connection.
I started thinking if it had anything to do with the gender, but all the nouns presented above are of feminine gender.
Hope someone can clear things up!
