Morning = 6 am to 12 pm
Afternoon = 12 pm to 6 pm
Evening = 6 pm to 12 am
Night = 12 am to 6 am

It's sort of like this :)

@OscarGacitua I tend to think of 6pm-9pm as evening, while 9pm-midnight is late evening. I think midnight-6am is thought of as “late at night”.

@zackkkkkk What if you get together with someone at 1 am, what do you say to them, good evening or good night? If I'm not mistaken, saying "good night" is a way to say goodbye and not a way to say hello.

@OscarGacitua If you get together with someone at 1 am you can say "I hope you're having a good night."

"I hope you're having a good night" is present tense.

I hope you have a good night. -> Have a good night. -> Goodnight.

These are future tense.

I hope this helps!
