No, Bom dia is not Italian. The masculine singular phrase is the Portuguese equivalent of "Good day!" and the Italian equivalent of Buon giorno! The respective pronunciations will be "bo DJEE-uh" in Portuguese and "bwon DJOR-no" in Italian.

No, 'Bom dia' isn't Italian. Instead, it's Portuguese. The masculine adjective 'bom' means 'good'. The masculine noun 'dia' means 'day'. Together, they're pronounced 'boh-DJEE-uh'.

The phrase 'Buon giorno' is the Italian equivalent of 'Good day'. The masculine adjective 'buono'* means 'good, fortunate'. The masculine noun 'giorno' means 'day'. Together, they're pronounced 'bwohn DEE-ah'.

*The vowel 'o' of 'buono' drops before a consonant that begins with a consonant.

No, "Bom dia" is not Italian. It is actually Portuguese and is used as a greeting equivalent to "Good morning" in English.
