Why “buenas noches” when it's only one night? I only spoke from personal experience. Whenever I used courtesy phrases I'd get shut down and/or corrected. When I spoke roughly with 0 courtesy, everybody understood me perfectly. |

When to use “igual” and “lo mismo”? I just explained what is what. Igual = equal, mismo = same or most often, THE same. So grab any sentence you want and convert it to spanish. The only reason you have such a conflict is because in 'commonspeak' spanish, lots of people use 'igual' when they shouldn't - 'es igual' or 'me da igual' being crappy uses of the words. Go ahead and present me with any example you wish and I'll explain the why's and how's |

When to use “igual” and “lo mismo”? It was just an example, in your case, the real spanish translation would thus be 'su nivel es el mismo que el mio' so there's really no issue |

Why “buenas noches” when it's only one night? Well, been to Spain a couple of times and, there seems to be no courtesy, certainly not in the entire central region. Only in Cataluña and Andalucía did I hear a rare 'please' but I could have been dreaming. For the most part, people just say things in a dry manner, for example: 'Give me that' - 'dame eso' | 'Pasame el vaso' - 'pass me the glass'. There's no please/would/could/should/maybe or anything like that preceding the questions |

Why “buenas noches” when it's only one night? Can you be more specific? I could answer that in 20 different angles. |
