Shakespeare never had any of his characters say this. Honest. Yet nevertheless it appears in questions over and over again. Why? Who is suggesting that this is a phrase found in Shakespeare? It means nothing and is not a phrase used by anyone.

The phrase "Gi' you good-den" is another story altogether.

This phrase means "give you good evening". In Shakespearean language, this is a common greeting or farewell spoken late in the day.

Literally this means "give you good evening" but it really just means goodnight.

Nothing. It's a fairly common mistake to think that this is a word in Early Modern English but it is not. It might be an ignorant rendering of "gi' ye good den".
