Explanation

Evening is the part of the day between late afternoon and night. It is usually the time when people finish work, have dinner, or relax. The evening often begins around sunset, when the sun goes down and the sky starts getting darker. For example, “We go for a walk in the evening.” Evening can also be used as an adjective to describe things related to this time, like evening news or evening dress. It is a common word in daily life, travel, and social conversations. Evening is different from night because night comes later when it is dark and people sleep.
