Buonanotte si dice alla fine di una giornata quando si sa che l'altro andrà a letto o comunque andrà a casa a dormire. E si usa quasi sempre quando si lascia qualcuno. Buonasera invece può essere anche un saluto di quando ci si incontra. Si usa quando comincia a far scuro. Oppure al Sud si dice già nel pomeriggio. In effetti in Italia non diciamo "buon pomeriggio", lo dicono solo in tv.

@fenantrene Solo al Sud si dice "buonasera" da dopo pranzo. Al Nord dicono buongiorno anche alle 4 di pomeriggio. Si dovrebbe dire "Buon pomeriggio " ma non lo dice nessuno...
