Translation:
- Panel 1: Doctor Word
- Panel 2: Doctor: “What is the problem?”
- Panel 3: Patient: “There’s something wrong with my voice.”
- Panel 4: Doctor: “Sure. I’ll give you some pills.”
- Panel 6: Patient: “Thanks, Doctor!”
- Panel 7: Doctor: “Next!”
- Panel 8: Next patient: “Good morning, doctor!”


I was confused by the translation as I would have thought “bom dia” would mean “good day” rather than “good morning”. I looked it up and apparently although it does literally mean “good day,” people will look at you funny if you say it any time other than morning as that’s how it’s actually used. Interesting!
Same as English “tonight” isn’t at night but in the evening.
“Tonight” means any time between when it’s dark outside and going to bed to me.
Which gets dicier the further you go away from the equator.
To me, coming from a different language, it means when people are in bed. So"strolling around the block at night" is totally different to “in the evening”.
That applies when you’re wishing someone a good night or good evening. Night is for when they’re going to bed. Same in German, I believe, guten Abend and gute Nacht.
