Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Marina Marinova: In Macedonian good evening is dobra vecher not dobar vecher because "vecher" is a feminine noun and not masculine and for "good morning" we say "dobro utro" not "jutro" as it is in Serbian, Bosnian and Croatian. I hope this clarifies some things.
