Good afternoon and good night are buon pomeriggio and buonasera respectively. A good way to translate phrases or passages is with some free online translators such as Google Translate and babelfish, which are usually accurate, however basic knowledge of the language is helpful to correct any grammatical errors. For more complex translation there are software that can translate passages in numerous languages more accurately than the free online translators. The best example of this is the Babylon 9translator which can translate to and from 33 different languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese and many others.
