こんにちは (konnichiwa) is the typical Japanese mid-day greeting. It's literal meaning is actually "As for this day", but through language patterns has since become a greeting (think of how many terms in English have had their meanings changed over the years). Because of the time this greeting is used, it could be translated as "Good Afternoon" (and it would perhaps be more correct to do so in most situations), though it is most commonly translated as "Hello". However, the latter does not reflect that this greeting is not typically used outside of mid-day greetings.
More Greetings:
Ohayo - Good Morning
Konnichiwa - Good Afternoon
Konbanwa - Good Evening
Oyasumi- Good Night (Not equivalent to english's "Good Night" its a greeting said at night)
