Why in Spanish do they say ???Buenos d??as??? instead of ???Buen d??a????

This is a translation of the original article in Spanish.

I got palta…

Why do we greet with “good morning (buenos días)” when we can say “good day (buen día)”?

It is obvious that when we greet we are referring to the present. With this greeting I express my wish that the other person have a good day today. In fact, this is how other languages ???understand it, so they consequently use the singular form. However, the Spanish language is the only one that greets in plural.
